Chicken dumping on the rise in North Canterbury

North Canterbury Chicken Rescue founder Manda Gill says the volunteer group receives the most complaints about abandoned chickens between November and March.
People abandon them for various reasons, but mainly because the chicks turn out to be roosters.
"I think everything deserves a fair shot at life," she says.
