Animal Sponsorship
Despite what many of us have been led to believe, properly caring for chickens is costly. Chickens are fragile and vulnerable beings who need proper predator proofed housing, nutritious food, and veterinary care when needed just like our dogs and cats do.
Help Us Help Them!
If you would like to make a big difference in our ability to care for the individuals we take in, sponsoring a particular animal is a great way to do that, as well as forming a connection with one of our many wonderful residents.
Pick Your Peep!!
Chickens have unique personalities. They all have different likes and dislikes, different voices, different faces. Some like to be held. Some don’t. If you head over to our meet our residents page, you can read more about the unique individuals here. You can choose which individual you’d like to sponsor, or let us pick for you!
Why?
For an idea of the costs for us to care for the animals, here's a breakdown of our average costs per chicken:
- Food and bedding: $400
- Veterinary costs (for emergencies and preventative health care including hormonal implants): $1000
- Structures (building, maintenance): $200
- Staff: $300
- Total annual expenses per chicken: $1900!
