Update #1: Still need more help saving chickens
First, thanks to everyone who has donated so far. We really, really appreciate it. Unfortunately, we still need to raise quite a bit of money and we only have about a week to do so.
If you didn't see it, we posted a video featuring Mabel the chicken on our Kickstarter campaign page (http://kck.st/crFbgq ). We would be truly grateful if you could help us spread the word about that video and the fundraising campaign.
The best ways to help are to share a bit about why you gave, to post the link (http://kck.st/crFbgq ), and to ask your friends and family to do the same. Doing this via email, Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, Tumblr, blogs, face-to-face and other methods of modern networking are really effective. If everyone who has given got just two friends to give money, we will likely have the full $6000 that we need to build a new barn.
And don't forget to like us on Facebook:

Mabel also has a new Facebook account, where she fills you in on the life of a chicken at the sanctuary:

Thanks again, everyone!
