Hi would anyone know the nearest source of battery hens in south yorkshire .The sites i have found on other threads indicate lancaster as nearest place but thats quite a trek .I guess not all battery hen farms want to advertise themselves but there must be something a lot closer? :?

Try the battery hen welfare trust.  Had a look on their site and lincolnshire might be nearer.

Hi

Apparently there is a hen rescue planned for January 24th - I saw this on GUMTREE.

Suggest you contact these people at www.henrehomers.net  

www.henrehomers.net - application form is under "adopting hens"

sorry - should have added apparently they will be transporting the hens around the country to collection sites so you may find one local to you
