Homes4hens exists to give commercial laying hens a future after farming. Our aim is to inspire you to provide a free-range retirement for ex-laying hens otherwise destined for slaughter.
The project was inspired after Kathryn and Michael Vogel collected 6 hens to keep as pets from a battery farm. They were shocked to see the condition of the hens and saddened that they went to slaughter at such a young age. Homes4Hens was founded in 2010, has now rescued and re-homed thousands of hens and created a network of collection points, run by volunteers across Scotland. We are committed, dedicated and passionate people who hope to bring joy to people's lives whilst helping hens that deserve a happy ending.

Since 2010 we have helped thousands of hens enjoy a second chance
Homes4Hens buy 'commercially spent' hens from UK farmers who support our work, we treat the girls to a health check up, seeing to any care or attention they may need before releasing them to loving homes.
If you choose to re-home a few hens from us we hope that you will find it as rewarding an experience as we do. Not only are you providing commercial chickens with a well earned retirement and saving them from slaughter but they also reward you with great eggs and great entertainment.
