Now this looks like a good layer – it’s one of the nicely knitted tops helping rescued battery hens survive freezing winter temperatures.

The birds, saved by RSPCA officers last month, had been so poorly treated their feathers had fallen out, leaving them at risk in the cold.
Staff at Raystede Animal Welfare ­Centre in Lewes, East Sussex, have been knitting clothing and volunteers have sent in jumpers.

Sanctuary worker Wendy Holford said: “I ­cannot get over the kindness of those people who have knitted jumpers for the girls.â€

A very good reason to look for the words "Free Range".

(Or, as some of you may say, as would Rod: "Go veggie!" Wish I had the tenacity... dedication - whatever it takes.)
