250 Factory Farmed Hens Rescued

ByJon

Today we rescued some ex-barn hens, we took on 250, unfortunately the remaining 20,000 odd will go for slaughter.

These girls came all the way from Norfolk and are ready to be re-homed. They soon recover from their ordeal and make great pets.

If you can offer a life-long home to a couple or more, please see our website regarding our re-homing conditions and how to reserve them.
