The pain of losing them is the price we pay for the privilege of knowing them and sharing their lives . . .

Way to Go!

Henny Penny Rooster was one of three month-old chicks being sold at a farm supply store in Columbia, Tennessee. They were crammed together in a small wire cage on a hot day before Easter. Henny Penny and his two brothers were all bleeding. When I asked what could be done to help them, the owner said they just wring their necks and toss them out. So I said, "I'll take three bleeding chicks to go, please." – Laurie Montgomery. This winning photo appears in the 2012 Chicken Run Rescue Calendar for July.
