200 Hens Rescued

ByJon

Today we have rescued 200 commercial hens, these had reached the end of their “commercial life” and were due to be sent for slaughter.

Please get in touch if you can offer life-long homes for rescued hens.

We ask for photos of enclosures and your set up, so that we are confident that it is spacious and fox proof. These girls have had some access to outdoors so it’s not all totally new to them. They are 18 months old and would make great pets. Please get in touch via our email address – [email protected].

Minimal donation per hen is £4 ( To help with housing costs) but greater donations are greatly received 🙂

Please bring a box for collection!

As well as all of the normal tasks like feeding, checking and cleaning  all of the animals, its a non stop battle to keep the animals with fresh unfrozen water. All of the rabbits…
