Today we have rescued our first hens of 2011. Battery hens live a miserable existences and after a short life, the are sent for slaughter to maintain high egg production, in the name of cheap food.

They need a field or large garden, with secure fencing and somewhere to sleep and escape from the sun, wind and rain.
