LINCS LITTLE HENS - Site sponsors and thanks
Would you like to see your business details advertised on our website? Do you sell animal housing which you would like to promote here with photographs & prices? Could you provide us with a shed and/or a hen house/run either F.O.C or at a greatly reduced price, for us to endorse your company as having used your products ourselves? We often get asked regarding suitable animal housing as to recommending someone. Could that be YOUR company? Please email us on lincslittlehens@aol.com or call 0845 017 9422 and leave a message if there is no reply. We will call you back. We often send letters out to companies asking for help. If YOU think the company you work for may be generous and be able to spare £20 in exchange for an advertisement on here and also on an actual poultry crate, please drop us an email with who to address the letter to and we'll send them one. Thankyou
MANY THANKS ALSO TO JILL TERRY AND CHRIS & LYNN TURNER FOR DONATING DOG CRATES FOR THE POORLY HENS WE BRING BACK TO NURSE BACK TO GOOD HEALTH.
Thankyou to Sutton Bridge Parish Councillor, Jenny Rowe for organising and allowing us access to the gated old A17 road so we are not blocking the junction of Eastbank onto the A17, nor the swingbridge. This also gives us peace of mind that should a hen somehow escape and make a dash for it, we won't cause a traffic pile up on a major arterial route into the east of England. http://www.multimap.com/s/g5AqU4IQ
Thankyou so much to Stephen Brighton from Bearts of Stowbridge for doing us a great deal on a much needed trailer. Please see the sponsors page for a clickable link to Bearts.
Thankyou so so much to Sharron and Justin for such a kind and generous donation which will be put to great use purchasing 2 new crates which will be labelled as donated by you.
Thankyou to Linda Sneddon for the sponsorship
REGARDING PROLAPSES-DO NOT listen to any ignorant vet that says a prolapsed hen should be put to sleep, get it to me as soon as possible as we have a 100% success rate in treating prolapses so the hen can carry on and have a good quality of life afterwards. Vets do not seem to be taught about poultry as a farmer for instance, would just wring the birds neck.
However the vets will have to go back to vet school now the popularity of keeping hens as pets has intensified. Sadly, many still recommend euthanasia which is totally unnecessary.
Our real reward though is seeing these lovely hens pecking the ground freely and being retired and it doesn't matter whether they lay eggs or not.
We do sell eggs from our healthy, happy rescued hens for £1.00 for 6 eggs and every penny goes into the pot that pays for the hen food so we make no profit whatsoever.
