Awwww.... Rescued hens!

These are called 'battery hens'. This is what most hens look like at egg producing farms. They are kept in cages their entire lives and then at about a year and a half old, they are sold for slaughter.
The three hens here are lucky; they were rescued before that happened.

Chickens make wonderful pets but they do need care just like any other animal. All have different personalties and that's what makes them so special!
