Lenny & Larry (roosters) Arrived 13th May 2018 This pair of lucky Andalusian roosters narrowly avoided slaughter after a caring person rescued them. They made the trip into the Perth Hills to their forever home here at the sanctuary. Here they will live the life they deserve, being loved and cared for and enjoying each other’s friendship for (we hope) many years to come. Unfortunately the third rooster was kept by the original owner, we assume for breeding. There are so many people still hatching or raising chicks in…

The Busselton Five
Falcon, Sherbet, Popcorn, Pepper & Rocket (roosters) Arrived 8th August 2017 Sherbet, Falcon, Popcorn, Pepper and Rocket were the result of backyard hatching. Their owner’s already had a flock of chicken, one being a particularly broody hen. Their children asked if they could obtain some eggs to raise under her. Though they didn’t consider how they would accommodate them, should some be born male. This is something she now feels very sorry about, and hopes others learn from her experience. The mother of the house embarked on a mission to…
The Fantastic Four
Mikey, Roy, Rusty and Valentino (roosters) Arrived 15 May 2016 These four handsome hunks came to us via a friend whose neighbour bought young (what she thought were) hens from a heritage breeder. When it turned out that four of them were in fact roosters, she was going to return them to the trader, but was told they would likely be put down. So here they are with us, taking our total to seven roosters. They alternate with the hens to free-range so that there’s no hanky panky, and it’s…
