Do you have RATS? Here at CRU Sandhurst we also rehome semi feral and feral cats. Often they are just scared and need a place to keep warm and fed. These cats will need somewhere safe for atleast 6 weeks before being released, such as a secure shed, stable etc. please get in touch if you would be interested in giving a happy mouse and rat catcher a new place to call home. We also rehome ex colony/ and cats from hoarding homes, which just want love and attention. Often just a little shy or scared but always, given a little bit of time, come round and enjoy the company of people. (Pics below showing previously rehomed cats and kittens)

Thank you so much to all of the lovely new and regular rehomers who came to collect their gorgeous, heavy hens today 💕 we have a few extra girls left due to more being in the sheds than expected. They are settled, health checked and ready to be collected. Please contact me if you have space in your coop plus a majority are blue egg layers 😍🥚 please share 🙏

**📣HOMES NOW NEEDED📣**

Can you help give a home to any of these lovely girls and boys?💕

It’s that time of year again when schools and care homes hatch chicks/ducklings and then realise their fate if returned! I have saved them and raised them so they can find a new home. I have 19 babies looking for a coop to call home. All are super friendly as handled by my children from chicks and there are 13 hens and 6 cockerels.

Thank you all so much for reserving some girls and sharing, they have all now found new homes 🥰

DUCKS - Is anyone looking to rehome some gorgeous excommercial ducks? There’s 100 left to find their forever pond ❤️🦆

23/01/2024

Hello lovely followers❤️
I hope all your feathered babies are keeping safe out of the winds! 💨
It’s coming up to our
**📣🥳FIRST REHOME OF THE YEAR🥳📣**
of the year and these girls need YOU 🫵🏻 to give them a second chance. Can you squeeze some more girls into your coop and give them the forever home they have been dreaming about?? 🙏
Then register or send me a message and we’ll have some girls available for collection on 18th February from Sandhurst collection point 🥰🐓

I’ve had a few extra rescues come in which has meant trying to find space and building runs. If anyone has metal sheeting suitable for roofing or clear plastic sheeting - heavy duty clear shower curtains would be great - for the sides so I can make them drier but still as bright as possible, we’d really appreciate it. Thank you 🙏☺️

All the last ex commercial hens have found their forever homes 🥳
One very special home was found for an extra special girl with a very crossed beak. Now named Wanda and living her best life free and spoilt. Her new mummy lets her choose whether she stays inside for cuddles or joins her sisters Freya, Nugget, Pingu and Sugar outside.
She came to me bedraggled, skinny and very sad as she struggled to eat. But her new mummy soon took care of any issues she had and made her special soft meals so she could scoop up and put on lots of weight. Just look at how happy she is enjoying the sunshine and with her sisters on their indoor bed 🥰😍💜

Phew .. After a busy morning on the farm on Saturday members of CRU were surprised to find around 500 hundred more hens than expected!!! And our policy is ‘No hens are left behind’ so that meant a mad dash to find somewhere safe for these extra girlies to go to so they can wait to find somewhere to call home.😄💜

SANDHURST has 120 of these girls longing to find their forever coop and hoping if you’re reading this, you may be able to find space to take some in 🥰💜

PLEASE get in touch or fill out an application form online to help us help these girls. And as always, if you can’t squeeze some extra hens in please please SHARE ☺️💜

Thank you from Team Sandhurst x

💜💜WOW💜💜 thank you so so much if you’ve rehomed some of the 58 girls I had brought to me on Saturday. I now have only got 7 girls left!!! 🐓😍 So who has space and can offer some of these girlies their retirement home? Let’s get them all a new coop to call home before the end of the week 🙏

If you don’t have space then please SHARE 🥰💜

Thank you x

We had an unexpected extra amount of hens collected from a farm rescue on Saturday, 1600 girls instead of 1400! 💜 As we never leave a hen behind, we of course rallied around and found places for the extra girls to wait for their new homes. 🥰🐓💜

This has resulted in 58 hens being delivered to Sandhurst Collection point😄 So do any of my lovely followers have space for some of these lovely hens? I’d love to get these girls into their forever coops asap, so please get in touch ☺️
Whether you’re just starting your hen keeping journey or adding to your existing flock, these girls would love to be part of your family 🏡 💜

Did you know feral cats are great at keeping the rat and mouse population down?? At Chicken Rescue UK Sandhurst we support a few cat rescues by relocating feral cats and kittens from the streets of London and surrounding, into safe, secure homes.

All they ask is a safe place to stay for 5-6 weeks, so they get used to you feeding them, local sounds/smells and then once released a safe dry place to sleep and 2 meals a day 😸

More often than not these often scared, confused and hungry kitties just need a friendly face and place to call home before they trust humans again and allow a little stroke or possibly even a cuddle 💜

Do you have space in your garden, at your yard etc to offer a couple of these lost souls a place to call home? Comment below for more information about cats/kittens we currently have with us awaiting their new homes 😸💜

Cockerels are brilliant at keeping the peace and are fantastic at keeping your girls safe from predators.

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared my post about the up and coming duck rehome. ❤️
I am thrilled to say that ALL of them have now been reserved 🥳 what an amazing result!!

It’s because of you that every single girl has been able to find a home, so a HUGE thank you to you all.

And if you are one of the lucky ones who have reserved some of these ducks, then congratulations as they will bring you so much joy with their individual personalities 🥰 🦆

12/06/2022

It’s time to talk Ducks! Beautiful ducks!! ❤️🦆
We have our rehome date coming up this coming weekend (18th June) and a few more ducks are still looking for their forever homes. Like commercial chickens, ducks also go to slaughter after what is classed as their productive lives, at only 2 years old 🙁 This is where we at Chicken Rescue UK step in! We take ALL of these lovely girls no matter if we’ve got homes for them or not, but obviously we would love it if all of them could find their deserving forever homes by this date 🥰
We are almost there but we have still got a few of these beautiful girls left. If you can adopt a couple it will change the lives of these gorgeous girls and we can promise you they will entertain you for hours! Plus as a bonus you might even get the occasional egg 😍

Your girls will be a little grubby when they arrive but they will soon be white again with some TLC.

To reserve your ducks please go to www.chickenrescue.co.uk where you’ll find the adoption button or just message me directly and we can discuss your adoption process further.

As always a share or two goes a long way so please share this post for others to see.
Thank you all for reading this and spreading the word!
