Light Sussex (England)

Lace is the ultimate glamour for a Wattlesburg hen. It is an immediate, decipherable statement of one’s place in high society. Lavish, beautifully grown black lace feathers adorn the hens of Bobbins and Needles Lace Makers shop. A strategic foraging plan is carefully designed daily by Mr. Tarsus Sussex. His goal, to achieve optimal feather growth. “Protein! Protein! Protein!” Mr. Tarsus reiterates every morning. He knows how tasty Lady Gwendolyn’s garden can be! Strawberries in season are so very tempting. Perhaps a visit to the Conpecktionary is in order? Who can resist those meal worm treats!?
