An enrichment activity today for the chooks.
Just scrape a thin layer from where you'd like the chooks to carve and leave them to for a while. My chooks had fun today

"Raising chickens is more than just a hobby for me; it’s an experience that brings deep peace and joy. Every morning, their crowing feels like a warm welcome to the new day, and watching them run freely around the yard fills my heart with happiness. There's an irreplaceable sense of fulfillment in caring for them, feeding them, and ensuring their coop is cozy. In every moment I spend with them, I feel the presence of a simple yet meaningful life, teaching me lessons in patience, love, and sincerity."

Had some amazing and great boxes today. Here's some ladies off to their new homes in comfort.
To future rehomers, please consider these chickens have travelled a long way close to their feathery friends and need a bit of space to relax onward to their forever homes. They are quite large and require adequate carriers to travel home in.
These chooks were so well behaved today, such little beauties. Good luck to them all. Happy chickens 🐔 💓

Hi everyone, just wondering how all your chooks are doing? How are they getting on with flock down? If you'd like any suggestions for enrichment.. give me a shout. Mine have been busy and now I have a few laying after a little break ( they deserve a break too) .
Next rehome in March. Happy New year to you all.

Hi, this is a post to see if there's anyone that's able to help these lovely chooks out. They need a new home as their owner is poorly. Please reach out if you are able to rehome these. I'm able to help with collection if needs be.
Location is Llanedeyrn Cardiff CF23 9 or any other Welsh Wales Volunteers, please

Message:
Hello, my mum (Chris Evans, Cardiff) has had chickens from you for the last few years but she's almost 82 now and struggling with her back and has also had a mini stroke.
She's managed really well up to now but is practically bed bound at the moment with sciatica so feels it's too much for her and is looking to rehome them. She has 7 and they are really healthy and laying well. I think I brought her to get these ones from you last summer, but can't remember the date sorry. I think we got all 7 then but maybe some are from a previous time.
Are you able to help at all? I know you usually only home rescue chickens but thought you may have some contacts or could point us in the right direction. Any help would be great, thank you very much, Kirsten

Chooks from this mornings re-home. Hope they've all settled down in their new homes xx

Hi, I'm opening on the 21st of May.. so if you're wanting to re-home any chooks get onto to the F.S.F.H hens and reserve them. Looking forward to meeting some new faces. Take care x

Can't wait to re-home some chooks again. Let's hope avian flu is coming to end very soon. My chooks can't wait to get out on my grass! Will keep you all posted when the next re-home is.

23rd of October is rehome day.. spread the word. Let's get as many chooks rehomed as possible...

Could you give a feathery friend a home?

We are a not for profit organisation, run entirely by volunteers who are dedicated to rehoming hens from the commercial egg production sector.

OUR AIM is to ensure as many people as possible are aware of the plight of the commercial hen, and demonstrate that there are alternatives to early slaughter.

OUR COMMITMENT is to rehome as many hens as we can into suitable homes, where they can live out the rest of their natural lives.

OUR GOAL is to educate the public about the ethical benefits of buying free range eggs, whilst supporting the work of British farmers. Commercially, all laying hens are slaughtered at the age of 72 weeks, when their production drops slightly. Their carcasses are worth very little and are usually sold for dog food, baby food or cheap, processed pies etc. We work closely with British farmers and purchase the hens from the caged, barn and free range systems, just before their slaughter date.
