Chicken Gallus gallus domesticus
Animals in our sanctuary
Tio
Tio was held together with another rooster and one hen at a residential care centre. As is characteristic of these little animals, he liked to be heard early in the morning. When complaints came from the campsite next to the centre they decided to find another home for the animals.
Maria
Maria was held together with two cockerels at a residential care centre. Because the cockerels liked to be heard early in the morning, more and more complaints came from the campsite next to the centre. The manager therefore decided to find another home for the animals.
