Age makes a pullet into a hen. We got 3, a Buff Sussex, a Silver Sussex and a Cuckoo Maran.

When I was a kid and I asked her what was for tea she would say "Bread and pull it."
But I guess the saying is really "Bread and pullet".
Old people FFS!

I was gonna say " That's interesting, I didn't know that " but By asking the question I guess that's fairly obvious innit. DER.
Females over a year old are known as hens, and younger females are pullets.

How did the fox get them Bill, they say the night you forget to close the door is the night he comes to lunch.
I'm genuinely sorry to hear about that, don't give up though, we've lost dozens over the years, and Mr Cheese is right, google it, they're in Devon, we've had them before, nice birds, good eggs straight away, when they arrive they look like oven ready birds for a few weeks till their feathers come back, go on, give some a chance.
