Jodie added: “She’s just injured but she’s amazing. I save a lot. She has a damaged wing.
“I FaceTime my chickens when I’m away because I want to make sure they’re okay. Their names are Thelma and Louise.’
Ben and Cat burst into laughter as Jodie revealed the names of her rescue animals and how one of her chickens has to live indoors.
Last year, the soap star paid tribute to the late Paul O’Grady by renaming her new rescue dog Lily, in memory of the comedian’s drag persona, Lily Savage.
Alongside a photo of her adorable new dog, the soap star wrote: ‘Well Paul, this is for you boy. We picked up this little angel on Sunday.
‘I have spoken to the wonderful charity @silverfoxdogrescue and we will be renaming her Lily. May Paul’s dedication to loving and rehoming animals live on forever. [sic]’
It comes after Jodie paid tribute to Paul on Instagram following his sudden death on Tuesday evening.
Alongside a photo of him, she wrote: “I just don’t want this to be true. The world must be filled with Paul’s. Imagine the laughter, imagine all the animals that would find their forever homes.”
She explained, “I have too many animals. I have to go home and see my rescue crow when I get back. I adopted a crow, her name is Sheryl Crow!’

Jodie added: “Imagine having a dear friend who personifies such supportive love and a gloriously sharp comedic response?
“He and the lovely @malprin made me experience that first hand. I’ll never be able to thank you enough and damn, I’ll miss you Paul.
‘Give Buster a treat from me. Thinking of all his family and friends.’
Paul was known for his comedic humor and alter ego as Lily Savage, but later in life he presented family favourite, For The Love Of Dogs, which encapsulated his own passion for animals and raised awareness for rehoming rescue dogs.
