A heart-warming celebration of chickens and the Australians who love them, featuring striking photography and stories that will move, delight and inspire you.
Fiona Scott-Norman is a writer, comedian and cabaret director who
lives in inner-city Melbourne with her eight heritage bantam
chickens. Fiona got her first flock in 2012, jumping on board the
backyard chicken train without a clue what she was doing. Three
flocks, two visits from Ms Fox, and one disastrous restocking
(where all the chickens HATED each other) later, she's seasoned.
Chickens aside, Fiona has had a long, shimmering career as a
writer, social commentator and arts journalists. She has written
for The Age and The Australian, as well as for TV comedies Back
Berner and Comedy Company, and has also written three books.
