Lots of people queued up to collect rescued hens, saving them from the slaughterhouse, at an event in Meikle Wartle, near Inverurie.
It was the latest in a series of collection days organised by the British Hen Welfare Trust around the UK.
The trust has homed more than a million hens since 2005.
There were 250 looking for kindly new owners at Meikle Wartle.
A similar event held in Inverness recently aimed to find homes for up to 1,500 hens.
North-east co-ordinator Louise Aitken said: “Volunteers come from all over Aberdeenshire and Moray to get these hens to their new homes.”
Our photographer Darrell Benns went to Meikle Wartle to capture the “hen-tastic” occasion.
