Eric
 
This is Eric our Orpington Cockerel.
 
Eric came from Fritton Poultry when he was a 14 week old boy. He is now about 2 years old.
 
He is a lovely boy, very friendly and takes care of his girls.
 
His favourite foods are dried mealworms or cakes!!!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Agatha & Christie are two Splash Orpington sisters who were hatched and reared by our good friend Celine Sanders and her family. These girls are incredibly tame and love to sit on your shoulders or lap and have a nap. Given the chance they would be in sitting on the sofa in the evenings too!!!

These are pictures of our hens from the Little Hen Rescue a day or so after they were released from a Battery Farm. As you can see by the state of them, they needed lots of TLC to recover.
 
They had never seen daylight or grass, never been able to stretch their legs or wings or have a dust bath - all the basic natural needs of a chicken.
 
 
 
If ever there was a reason to stop buying 'cheap' eggs these girls are a good one..................
 
Go Free Range and stop this cruelty.
