rescue days

what happens on rescue day?

 You will be given a collection time via email for your hens. You should bring a suitable carrier with ventilation and straw to stop the girls slipping, we can also provide straw for a small fee if needed. Please pay for your hens and any items from our shop by cash only.


Please come at your collection time as we have large numbers to manage on the day. You should also let us know if you can't come. This is extremely important as we may be able to rehome your hens to someone else if we are given notice. 


 You can also purchase from the Lucky Hens shop on Rescue Day;

  • ​Starter mix of Layers Mash, with added Omega 3 and oyster shell 
  • Multi vitamin solution
  • Leg bands
  • Mite powder
  • Smite liquid
  • Anti-peck spray
  • Purple spray

 Minimum donation required is £5 per hen. This donation covers our costs to rescue the hens.
