A chicken farmer who breeds chickens to produce eggs wants to find homes for 800 birds that supermarkets say are too old to lay eggs for their stores.Free-range farmer Anna Mogford, 32, of Somerset, said she had been told the supermarkets could not accept eggs from birds more than 72 weeks old.
Miss Mogford, of Donyatt, said she did not want the birds to be slaughtered so wanted to find new homes for them.
So far 200 of the chickens have been found new homes. Some have gone to nearby cider orchards and people's gardens. Miss Mogford has run Parshalls Farm for the past four years.
