Meet Spots: Our Criminal Hen

Every flock has that one chicken. You know—the feathered rebel. The one who lives by her own rules. The one who makes you question who’s really running the farm.

At Sisterly Farms, that chicken is Spots—our elusive, wide-eyed Americana hen and green-egg-layer-in-chief.

But don’t let those mint-colored eggs fool you. Spots is absolutely unhinged. She lives like she’s wanted in all 50 states.

Her Rap Sheet (So Far):

  • Property Destruction: She’s been caught red-footed scratching up the garden beds like it’s her personal excavation site. No remorse. No replanting.

  • Noise Violations: She doesn’t cluck. She screams. Is it singing? Is it distress? Is it performance art? We’ll never know.

  • Assault & Egg-tery: Try reaching under her to collect eggs and she’ll peck your hand like you just insulted her entire bloodline.

Behavior Profile

Spots is what you'd call... “skittish with a vengeance.” She won’t let you pick her up, make eye contact, or even think about being in her personal space. You might think you’re getting close—then boom. She’s already six feet away, weaving through grass like an Olympic hurdler.

Every night, the rest of the flock returns to the coop like civilized hens. Not Spots. She requires a tactical chicken wrangling operation. The only method that works is a full-on slow-motion chase with arms stretched wide, trying to herd her like you’re a chicken whisperer at a rodeo. Success rate: 40%.

But Still... We Love Her

Despite the drama, Spots gives us the most stunning green eggs. And maybe—just maybe—there’s a soft, misunderstood heart under all those fluffed-up feathers.

So here’s to Spots:
The diva.
The escape artist.
The uncatchable, green-egg-laying outlaw of Sisterly Farms.

We don’t choose our chickens. Sometimes, our chickens choose chaos.
