Michelin-starred chef Adam Handling, 37, says children broke into a chicken coop at a pub connected to his restaurant and damaged eggs. In his comments, Handling criticises the parents or adult guests who, he says, allowed the children access to the coop. Reports state that the children entered the chicken area and smashed about 30 eggs.

Handling describes the incident as involving children throwing fertilised eggs toward a nearby tree after getting into the coop. The accounts portray the chef’s reaction as angry and focused on responsibility, particularly on the conduct of adults present during the incident.

Across the coverage provided, the core details are consistent: a chicken coop at the venue is accessed by children, eggs are broken in the process, and Handling publicly calls out parents for permitting the behaviour. The sources do not provide additional information in the excerpts about arrests, investigations, or further consequences beyond the chef’s remarks.
