Mercury and Jupiter were castrated and microchipped today at .exotic.animals ✂️
This is an exciting step towards them going to their forever homes and we can't get over how big they are! 🥹🥹
They both recovered from their procedure perfectly and are already eating and pooping away! 🥳

**Still available for adoption**

Alfie and April are back for a holiday while their foster mum is away for a week.
What would be an even better surprise is if we could tell their foster mum when she gets back that they've finally found their forever home!

These two are the cutest pair and they are thick as thieves; with gentle giant April always up for a pat and a treat and dwarf Alfie who can be a bit shy to start with but once he warms up is an inquisitive little bean and does the most impressive flops!

Send us a message if you think you can offer these two a wonderful indoor home 🏠💞
Foster to adopt trials welcome.

*Now available for adoption*
Bolt was found as a stray and all efforts to find her original humans have failed.
We suspect she is young, likely around 5 months old. She hasn't laid yet for us but we have no reason to think she wouldn't. She is otherwise healthy and has been wormed and had a lice/mite treatment.
Send us a message if you have other chickens and think you can offer her a loving home 💞

Kevin update!
It turns out he is actually a she! She had a consult with our amazing avian vet .exotic.animals on Friday where she had x-rays done. No fractures which is honestly a miracle 🙏 (she was rescued after being thrown out a car window with her legs tied together 😪).
Her only injuries seem to be an old leg wound which we suspect may have been from a leg band.
It has penetrated the skin and unfortunately done ligament and nerve damage to her foot, and even indented the bone (see xrays) 😞😞😞
We aren't sure what this means for her overall prognosis but just taking each day as it comes!
She is such a sweetheart and loves being a house chicken 💞
She is definitely the largest chicken we have ever rescued! Comment your breed guesses below 👇

It's chicken mania here at the moment!
We have named the stray rooster Kevin, and he is settling in well. The swelling in his foot has significantly decreased with rest and anti-inflammatories so we're hopeful it's not fractured 🤞
Ginny graduates to an official member of the flock tomorrow! Big Ginny update coming soon 💞
And finally.... this lovely lady arrived this evening after being held by a lovely member of public for a few days. She was found as a stray and despite efforts her family couldn't be found. She is super sweet and we suspect young.
Her name is Bolt 🥰

Amidst juggling work and adoption days, we got a call about this poor fella who someone had seen thrown out a car window with legs tied together with stockings 😡😡
He is of course, a rooster, one of the most abused animals we see.
Treated with kindness, roosters can be incredibly sweet and gentle and he is no exception. Despite his traumatic evening he fell asleep in Gina's arms on the way home and has been so good and patient taking his medicine and letting us clean his wounds 💞
We estimate he is around 5 months old and has probably only just started crowing. He is incredibly skinny and has an older wound on his leg and a swollen foot, but otherwise seems unharmed which is incredibly lucky.
He is booked in at our avian vets but we are hoping it's just soft tissue damage 🤞🤞
Our vet bill continues to grow. We would be incredibly grateful if you would consider making a donation towards his care.

We will give an update once he has seen the vet 🙏
