Ex Free Range Girls - Moray, Aberdeenshire and Rosshire

Hi there, We have very limited time to rehome some girls from a free range farm. If anyone in the north east highlands is looking to adopt some girls, please get in touch. We have arranged pick up points in Moray, Aberdeenshire and Rosshire. The girls are just over 1 year old, a bit underweight but with some good food and loving they will soon bloom into lovely ladies. A donation would be very much appreciated. Thankyou. Contact details - Pauline 01542 888266 or email another_rescued_chicken@yahoo.com

I have two ex-bats which have integrated with my previous two hens in an Eglu. I was very kindly lent another Eglu to enable them to acclimatise to their new environment. I let them free-range with my other hens during the day, and they went to their separate Eglus at night. When I found one of my other hens in with them one evening, I reckoned they were ready to be put into one Eglu. They had a few scraps, but it was pretty minor and they all live happily together now.

When I first got the ex-bats, they just stood around a lot, and pecked at completely inappropriate stuff - the wire, the eglu, etc... and I had to show them where the food was. It took awhile for them to work out that they could come out. They didn't scratch and peck the ground for food. But, after awhile, they became normal chickens again. Only one of them appears to be laying, having been with me now since November, and their eggs are much smaller than my other hens. But they are lovely, funny birds.

Hi all,

we are planning to get 4 ex batts very soon.
I noticed there were lots of people asking where they could get ex battery hens, so, here are some of the rescues you can contact.

Little Hen Rescue - Home they currently need 10,000 hens rehoming before 29th June.

Free At Last- "FREE AT LAST!"

Battery Hen Welfare Trust- Battery Hen Welfare Trust

North London Hen Rescue- www.henrehomers.net

Cambridgeshire Hen Rescue - Cambridgeshire Hen Rescue

Hope this all helps.
