angusrose Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Hi all, I want to buy 2 ex-battery chooks. Does anyone know where I can get them from in the Derbyshire/Cheshire area? Thanks Angus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutti Frutti Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Great news Angus! You won't regret it, their characters are just fascinating I don't know about Cheshire/Derbys but I got my 2 girls from BHWT (was Battery but now British Hen Welfare Trust). The link takes you to the contact page. They normally want you to take three girls but were happy for me to have two to add to my established pair, as three new rescues would bully the two established girls I also found a few other charities - Little Hen Rescue are in Norfolk plus my local rescue centre has chooks! I hope you find some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 You could search for some local hen farms and see if they are getting rid of any. http://www.mylocalservices.co.uk/Derbyshire/egg_producers/derby/ Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
