Sponsor a Resident!
Occasionally we rescue hens that aren't able to adapt to their new world as quickly as the others, these numbers are low, but it happens. This may be due to the stress incurred during their life in the battery farm. Others have injuries such as sprained legs or wings. Some need a little physiotherapy on their legs to teach them to walk and use their muscles again. We keep these hens until fully recovered, we get them the treatment they need, we feed, care and house them until they are strong enough to be re-homed.
Would you like to sponsor a hen or turkey? It would make a great present for a child's birthday or a Little Hen Rescue fan.
For £15 a hen a year or £20 for the turkey chicks, the lucky sponsor would receive;

Scrags
Scrags is another hen who was pulled from the cages of a battery farm and she originally looked OK. We later discovered her laying on the floor of the chicken hut, thin and too weak to stand. Scrags was unable to figure out how to drink from a normal bowl, she had been used to a different form of drinker and had become so stuck in her ways she would rather dehydrate than be brave enough to try it. After isolation, regularly dipping her beak into water and feeding strength building food, she stood and walked. She suffers with an arthritic right leg, and walks with a limp. She has happily found herself a little hutch that she calls her own.

Lily
This is Lily, again a rescued battery hen that was extremely nervous. As you can see she is almost completely bald and very thin. Lily's treatment was a gentle introduction to the world, fat building food, and a very warm shed to keep her little body warm at night.
We hope that gradually Lily will learn to trust us and the new safe world around her.

Fred, Velma, Daphne, and Shaggy
Our gorgeous little turkeys x 4 are now up for sponsorship. These little chaps are Bernard Matthews Turkeys, so have been bred for meat. They will remain at Little Hen Rescue for their own security. They will need their diet monitored once they reach adulthood due to their fast weight gain.
To Sponsor all four chicks and watch them grow please click one option of payment below.
Once they have their own identifying personalities they will be sponsored individually.
