The Rescue
Poultry Rescue: Our Poultry Rescue division addresses the urgent need to rescue and rehome poultry, particularly chickens and cockerels. Many of these birds are abandoned or neglected, and we provide a safe haven where they can recover and thrive.
Our Home2Roost-er Campaign: A key initiative of our Poultry Rescue is the Home2Roost-er campaign, dedicated to finding loving homes for cockerels. Due to various misconceptions and regulations, cockerels often face significant challenges in finding homes. Our campaign works tirelessly to rehome these birds, ensuring they can live safely and happily.
