Bottled Hen has made her home (Apr, 1949)

Bottled Hen has made her homein a five-gallon jug since she was a week old. Owner B. E. Efird of Landis, N. C, is experimenting with a feed compound that makes hens lay red or green-yoked eggs. The air vents in the side of the jar enable the eight-week-old New Hampshire Red to put her head through to feed. Living in glass houses must agree with hens as she seems to be less neurotic than most fowl.
