I helped out at the BHWT rehoming day in Brackley last week and came home with 5 poorly girls.

2 skinnies, Holly and Heidi who are living with my Aunt:


2 baldies, Cam and Justine:


and Tracy Beaker, with her twisted beak:


I was only taking 2 but fell in love with Tracy and had to take her home! She struggles to eat but is ok scooping up food from a high up coop cup.

They're spending their first night outside tonight, hopefully it warm for them in the eglu! Smile

No, we think her beak grew back like that after she was debeaked as a chick.
She did well to cope for the years she was in a battery cage - guess it was never spotted in there!
