URGENT: Battery cage hens need homes by Sunday

[Guest guest]

Someone emailed me about a rescue group who is rescuing some battery

cage hens on Sunday in Gilroy. They are taking 100, but there are

thousands. They are looking for people to give them homes. The rest

go to slaughter.

 

These hens make great pets (animal companions). I had several and

became very attached to them. They would talk to me, knew their

names very quickly, liked to be held and petted, and were so happy

to run around after the confined life they were given. They seemed

very grateful, even.

 

Let me know if you can take some. Even if you are in the city, you

can have hens, by the way. Most cities allow them. It's not hard to

create a chicken house and run for three hens. You can even add a

door to a wood doghouse, which is very cute, and there you go!

 

Also, if you want guilt-free eggs for yourself or family members who

eat them, here's your chance. I can help you with all the

information you need about how to care for and house them. There is

even a pet chicken group you can join to support you!
