It's something that's a very sad fact of life! but in this country it's about one case a week,in other poor countries it's a lot higher! Years ago here they were called "Foundlings" and Oliver Twist by Darles Chickens was a story to high light their plight! Lets just hope that they All get a happy ending after such a sad start in life!
