PEOPLE are being encouraged to choose ex-commercial chickens for pets to help save a hen from slaughter
The British Hen Welfare Trust (BHWT) is holding an adoption day for ex-commercial chickens in Didcot this Sunday.
Domestic fowl are now the fourth most popular pet in the UK.
Jane Howorth MBE, founder of the BHWT, says, “Time and time again, the feedback we have from people who rehome our hens is how much they love them. Once people welcome hens into their family, they get to see what amazing, curious, funny little creatures they really are and can’t believe they didn’t do it sooner.
