Celebrating 28 years of dedicated activism for domestic fowl

In August 2015, we adopted Gabby as a baby chick from Maryland. She was
saved by a kind person who gave her to a fellow animal rights activist who
brought her to our sanctuary, peeping nonstop. Gabby is now a full-grown
beautiful and spirited hen, who runs up the brick steps each evening to
sleep on our screened-in porch. When Gabby’s friend Felix the rooster
died of a heart attack in our kitchen, on September 4, 2015, she ran to
tell me about the terrible thing she had just witnessed and implored me
with her loud peeps to follow her to the kitchen. Even as a baby, she knew
something bad had happened. We are so grateful to have dear Gabby in our
sanctuary.
