A Halstead farmer has denied there was any problem with the welfare of any animals on his farm, after a storm of criticism on the Facebook pages of Kent Animal Defenders.
The animal rights group has been keeping a close eye on Oaks Farm near Sevenoaks after an incident in November in which a bull was left lying in mud unable to get up for more than 24 hours after breaking its hock. The animal eventually had to be put down.
