Twinkle 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[]
Twinkle was named after the character in Dinner Ladies. 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, Rebecca described her as "actually an idiot" [1]. As she settled into the lovely coop and living space Dan and Rebecca built for her and the other chickens, she bloomed a little and gained back some feathers.
