🐔Welcome home, Henrietta! 🐔 His Majesty The King has rehomed British Hen Welfare Trust’s one-millionth hen at Highgrove Gardens! The British Hen Welfare Trust works to rehome commercial laying hens. Named Henrietta by His Majesty, she arrived with 29 other hens earlier this month.


Since 2005, the British Hen Welfare Trust has been saving and rehoming commercial laying hens throughout the United Kingdom. The Trust wanted their one millionth hen to carry a strong message and to have an impact on her life, and other hens, which was achieved through this royal adoption!
