Lenny & Larry (roosters) Arrived 13th May 2018 This pair of lucky Andalusian roosters narrowly avoided slaughter after a caring person rescued them.

We were unaware that Claudia was pregnant until one morning we spotted a little white and caramel lamb by her side. Little May was Claudia’s shadow, she rarely left her side. May is now almost four and half months old. Sadly her mother Claudia recently passed away from…
