Friends rescued Trudy who had fallen from the truck taking her to slaughter . . . she is a totally sweet little chicken who makes clucking and purring sounds. She is only about 8 weeks old, although breeding and steroids have made her grow too big too fast (chickens are usually slaughtered at 6 weeks or so). When they are rescued, average life span for these unfortunate chickens is a few weeks or with luck possibly a year or two. Trudy is learning to scratch under the leaves to look for bugs, and enjoys stretching her wings. She had never been outside before, but has now experienced sunshine and misty rain and breeze. We hope Trudy will be with us for a long, healthy life.
