What we do
in an eggshell

Rescuing Chooks
“It’s the worst part about what I do.” – egg farmers.
We work with egg farm owners, collecting all their hens at the time when they would’ve culled them at around two years of age, when they are no longer commercially viable because they don’t lay an egg every day! The egg farmers happily tell their customers that all their hens find forever homes!

Finding Chooks Their Forever Home
“Every chook deserves a happy retirement!” – every hen.
It is important these rescued hens go to their forever homes, where they will be cared for, egg or no egg. We have an approval process for hen parents now affectionately called ‘Mother Cluckers!’

Henly Advice
“So much to learn, so little time” Who Gives A Cluck
Through our years of hands on experience and research, we’ve been able to find helpful ways to care for hens health & happiness. We our chooksperts of a sorts! If we don’t know, we find answers, because more hens will be happier and healthier! Of course, always see your avian vet if you are concerned.
Advocate for Chook Welfare
“There is always a better way” Anon
A chicken or as we call them in Australia, a chook, can be a hen (pullet when young) or a rooster (cockerel when young). We want better welfare for all chooks no matter what they are bred for – egg laying, meat, school projects, backyard hens. They all deserve to live a happy healthy life . We will be one of the loudest voices advocating for better standards for chooks in Australia.
