“They make great pets!” Urgent call for hen homes in Worthing this weekend – V2 Radio

By Philip Keeler X @keeler_philip

Andrew Ball, a local volunteer with the BHWT has rehomed hens himself and says they quickly become part of the family. “People don’t expect hens to be great pets. But they’re lovely, curious and affectionate. I can’t imagine life without mine” he says.

“Treated with kindness, they are often happy to have a cuddle, or perch on your knee for a snooze. They still lay the occasional egg, but more than anything they just bring a little bit of joy. And they make great pets.”

Gaynor Davies, Head of Welfare and Operations at the BHWT, said: “Our hens are so deserving of a second chance which is why we’ve sent over one million off to new homes since 2005. If you’re in West Sussex and fancy offering a home to some hardworking hens – who will continue popping out the occasional egg – please get in touch as soon as you can.”

To adopt hens simply visit bhwt.org.uk/hen-adoption and click ‘adopt’ next to the location nearest to you. Alternatively, call the BHWT Rehoming Team on 01884 860084
