Marvin's back to his old antics and bringing laughter wherever he goes. I've added a mini shelter to their barn and the bearded guy's absolutely loving it!
Farm life never stops 😂❤️

The update you've all been waiting for!
We are so grateful for the funds raised for Marvin's vet bills. We were able to raise about half of what we owed and this is such a huge help. ❤️
He is doing incredibly well now that he is home. He was totally silent the entire trip to the vet and during his stay, as soon as he saw mom, he perked back up and was ready to get the hell out of there 😂❤️
He's back to his normal spunky self.
Marvin had severe bloat and anemia.
They worked so hard to relieve that pressure for him and rebuild proper gut health. It was very clear Marvin found a bag of pig feed and had a great time.
Live and learn I suppose!
The vet has advised us that due to the variety in plant life on the farm, we are best to feed Marvin only hay and let him free graze, and to keep him away from grains.
They were able to get a very clear xray of his head and trim back a large part of those curly horns we've been so worried about. He had a sore on his head from where the horn grew back into his skull but they've assured us they're willing to keep trimming it back, despite us being turned away from other vets.
If you've read this far then thank you again for your support and the outpouring of love we have recieved.
We are grateful to have the veterinary team we do, and all of you.

We are so thrilled to share this update with you all.
Not only have Marvin's gastro symptoms improved, but our incredible team was able to remove a SUBSTANTIAL amount of his horns. When we saw this we were brought to tears, as we have been dreaming of this sweet moment of relief for Marvin. He must feel SO much better.
He isn't home yet, but hopefully this weekend, as long as he continues to be stable.
He will be monitored very carefully to ensure he no longer eats things he's not supposed to eat. This may mean building a new enclosure and paddock somewhere on the property, which as you all know I struggle to pen our animals. However if it means no more urgent trips to the vet or lots of discomfort, I feel it's a sacrifice we will have to make.
We are so grateful for everyone's donations and shares, please continue to share Marvin's story so that we can continue helping animals like him, and pay off the rest of his bill.
Thank you everyone

The heat has us acting all kinds of ways 😂❤️
My partner asked "who even is that?" HECK IF I KNOW! 🤷♀️
Most of our pigs are pretty good at protecting themselves from the sun, but we still try to spritz a little sunscreen on them when we can.
Mama is having some anxiety and stress about the open house, I have NO idea how to market ourselves or get the word out. We hope it all comes together in the end.
Stay cool, stay messy!

Ponyo is something special.
With a metal plate and two pins in his front shoulder he's just sort of our pride and joy 🤣❤️🤷♀️
He is the farm uncle, and teaches all the little ones how to behave.
Ponyo has a beautiful and fascinating story, that includes bringing a family together, that we hope to share with you at our open house on August 10th ;) 🥰

Mom's are off for a couple days to pick up a beautiful new addition to our friends family.
We are bringing a pig home to the most incredible humans, a sweet little girl and her mom, who lost their boy far too soon and needed that piggy energy in their lives.
No one understands that better than us!
We will not be reachable for a few days and will have some great people watching over the farm.
We are comin for ya Pickles!!! ❤️🤩🥒
