Samantha is one of Dan's and Rebecca's rescue chickens.
She was rescued by Dan and Rebecca in February 2023 at the age of 18 months, from a hen farm which slaughters the hens when they reach that age.
Life[]
Samantha was named after the Sex and the City character. While the farm she came from was officially termed "free-range", Dan and Rebecca have said the living circumstances there were still "quite awful". When she was rescued, she was already very chatty and loud. Of all the chickens, she was also in the best state, still having 95% of her feathers left. [1][2] . As she settled into the lovely coop and living space Dan and Rebecca built for her and the other chickens, she made herself comfortable very quickly.
