The children at English Martyrs Catholic Primary school, here in Oakham, have been very proud of raising their own chicken, 'Flapjack Henny Penny'. They have been fascinated with her development from egg to hen and delighted to see her lay eggs.
Currently on Channel Four, chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is campaigning to improve the lives of thousands of chickens in the UK. Unfortunately, huge numbers of chickens don't have the idyllic life that Flapjack Henny Penny leads.
