Grandma came to us along with 24 other chickens when a loving couple, facing an unexpected move out of state for work, had no other options for their beloved flock.

We believe Grandma is between 13 and 16 years old. She may be well past her laying years, but she still has plenty to contribute in the form of personality, charm, and a whole lot of heart.

Nearly blind, Grandma has learned to navigate her world with help from her feathered and human friends. With time and patience, she has found her way around the yard and now manages quite well on her own. She has a few middle-aged coop mates who keep her company from time to time, but she is also perfectly content doing her own thing.

Grandma knows her name and comes when called, usually hoping for a tasty treat! And while snacks are certainly welcome, she's just as happy to be held and enjoy a little affection.

Grandma reminds us that every chicken has value beyond the eggs they lay. Some simply need a safe place to grow old, feel loved, and enjoy life on their own terms.

We are so happy Grandma found her way to our rescue. She is a wonderful addition to our flock, and we're grateful to give this sweet senior the comfort, care, and love she deserves. ❤️
