London, June 22
Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon is tending chickens at her California ranch and has been handing out freshly-laid eggs to her friends.
"The chickens are laying more eggs than she (Witherspoon) can eat, so Reese started giving eggs away to her neighbours, parents on the kids' soccer team and all her friends,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
The 33-year-old, who has two kids with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe - daughter Ava (9) and son Deacon (5), has earned an unusual nickname after buying the birds.
"Now all of Reese's friends joke and call her the chicken lady,” added the source.
