Hello from Dallas, TX...

[Sentience]

I am helping my sister find a safe refuge for her hen, as she is moving and the new place is not conducive to raising her. I presume the members of this board provide a non-violent, cruelty-free home for chickens; i.e. raise them for the eggs in exchange for a safe habitat--meaning you dont viciously end their lives!?.. So, I am looking for someone to provide these moral conditions in/around the Dallas/Ft Worth area. I've heard about an animal sanctuary in North TX but it looks 1.5-2 hrs away.
My sister is in Dallas and we need to find a new coop/home asap thx for reading and the potential help. G0d bless.. Matthew

Is there a neighbor who might take the chicken in?

All - thank you for the replies. I'm still looking. She is an Orpington, not laying eggs and Im moving over the weekend. If you know of anyone in the Dallas area, please let me know. Thank you
