Meet Jane Eyre. Her past is fraught with suffering, not unlike Charlotte Bronte’s heroine. A backyard hen who was advertised on gumtree because she required vet care. Her owners were unwilling to spend the money to save her life. She had egg yolk peritonitis. My amazing friend saw her advertised on gumtree and grabbed her. She took her to the vet, had her drained, got her put on antibiotics, pain relief and had a hormone implant put in her neck to stop her laying eggs and to stop her from dying.

Chickens are not nothing. If they are in your care, they deserved to be cared for just like any other pet.
