AUSSIE REAL LIFE
Lauren’s chicken is an adventurer
Lauren Williams, 43, Greenwood, WA
Sitting on the front verandah with my hubby Matthew, then 41, we were watching our rescue chooks scratch in the yard when my phone rang.
It was Ashley who runs Battery Angels Chicken Rescue in Perth, a group dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of chickens who’ve lived their life in a factory farming environment.
‘Do you have space for two special hens?’ she asked, sounding hopeful.
‘You know I have a soft spot for the special ones!’ I replied.
