Aries was found at abattoir in January, 2017. She was found in crates with thirty of her friends. It was quite baffling to us why these hens were at the abattoir as they were so young, only at point of lay age. All thirty were rescued and I kept three of these beautiful girls. Two golden beauties who I called “Leo” and “Aries” and one gorgeous brown girl who was so timid, sweet and scared who I called, “Pisces”.
Aries is a leader. Her golden feathers shine as she walks through grass first, as she leads the other hens through a forgotten path on the property. She leads like an aries and she walks like an aries. She is incredibly selfish when it comes to food and is not afraid to peck others in the head if they come anywhere near her food.
Brave, strong, independent and clever. Aries is not just a chicken, she’s a super hero chicken.
