Free-Range Hens Feeding on Fresh Greens in a Barn Coop #1415731 (License: Personal Use)

Three reddish-brown laying hens actively peck at fresh green lettuce leaves placed atop golden straw bales inside a rustic wooden barn. The coop features exposed beams, weathered planks, and a wire fence in the foreground, with compost-rich soil visible behind the straw-a sign of active scratching and natural waste cycling. Natural light filters through gaps in the walls, highlighting the birds’ glossy feathers and engaged behavior.
