Rescued 60 hens today

[Youngfarmer2019]

We rescued a TON of hens today. For those of you who don’t know, we already have over 220 chickens but decided to rescue 60 today. They are in bad shape, came from a henhouse originally, never saw daylight, never eaten or even seen grass. They were then moved to the place that we picked them up from. This guy obviously just buys and sells and buys and sells and buys and sells without caring about the conditions his birds live in. There were 200 hens in a space big enough for 30 hens, all standing in mud, several lying dead, trampled, on the ground. We took 60 of them, that’s all we could feasibly rescue without going bankrupt. They will be nursed back to health on green green pastures and live out the rest of their lives here at 3:19 Farms.

They look like spent layers. They are probably in their first molt and the chicken farm sold them cheap, that guy you bought them from probably buys and sells them every year.
