Anyone know how to rehome chickens in East Midlands Area?

I am gently trying to help my mum rehome three of her hens. I posted a thread earlier this week about them. They are pecking the rest of the hens really badly. She has tried everything and was considering taking advice from a local farmer and blunting their beaks!!

After reading comments from other mumsnetters I think I have persuaded her to look into rehoming them. Their run is big and she has never had this type of problem before but mumsnetters have suggested that maybe these particular hens need even more freedom to be happy.

Can anyone suggest anywhere that might take them on or can anyone share their experiences of rehoming hens?

Mum feels like she has failed them and so is procrastinating about sorting them a new home. As such, I need to be proactive in helping her but don't know where to start.....

Try the people here under the section Hens Needing Homes.

Somebody will help.

I've just been able to rehome my crazy orpie with one of my pals on here. They're very friendly and will be concerned if you explain the story.
