The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter is working to rescue 80 hens from an Iowa egg farm.
The shelter is working with the Animal Place rescue of Grass Valley to provide homes of the hens, who were rescued from an egg farm in Iowa that went out of business due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Without rescue, the hens might have been put to death, lacking anyone to care for them.
If you are interested in adopting one of the hens, please call 831-454-7200 to be placed on the adoption waiting list.
