The Silpe Farmstead

06/18/2024

The most random and loved critter on the farm is up for adoption.

He comes with a tank and full accessories.
He also comes with a lifetime warranty with yours truly ( most people do 14 days)

Crush is a 6 years old bearded dragon I took in 3 years ago. He thrives on attention and a fresh diet only. I absolutely LOVE this boy and there will be tears when he leaves, however, with my schedule he needs alot more human attention than what I can provide. He LOVES being handled and going places.
He's been everywhere from Walmart to the PBR.

He helped me deal with loss, happiness, grief and helping a toddler sleep (😂). He has always been the best little dragon. With the uprising of feed, we have to make cuts. He deserves more than what I can provide running a farm and trying to stay afloat. When we are, the farm takes away the attention he loves.

I will be picky, and there is a rehoming fee.

He was my first reptile, so newly experienced owners are welcomed if they follow through with diet and overall maintenance.

Please msg Melissa Silpe if interested.

This boy is special. If you can't care for someone's else's heart, please don't apply ❤️

Our pest control crew have been turned free & already working hard finding all the bugs this rain is bringing. This really helps control mites, fleas and other nasty biting bugs to help our horses, cows and goats.

Bakers and cooks! If you are looking for fresh eggs hit us up! The BEST cheesecake you will ever bake comes from fresh chicken eggs 🥚

Orion is getting "weaned" from his adopted mama, Mocha.

He had to finally join the big boy pasture.

He isn't thrilled nor is he agreeing to the new arrangements..

BUT he is liking the fact he's right by the girls 😅

Dear sweet Jetson,

You don't know who Lil Andy was, and we will not judge you for it.

You do have some big little hooves to fill.

I would like to introduce the 2024 new breeding sire of our girls, Jetson!

Thank you Jozi and family for entrusting us with this sweet boy to carry on our micro Nigerians.

Breeding season is right around the corner!

Jersey & Dot are already checking him out😏

We had such an amazing time at the Animal Fest hosted by Arcadia Housing Authority. 200+ visitors got to do so many fun activities including seeing live goats! We took Zoe, Marley, Toby, Oreo & Little Bit. They all loved it and we all had a amazing time. We will definitely do again! Thank you AHA for inviting us to such a wonderful event ❤️🐐

This is real life. It is not all sunshine and rainbows on a farm. I can't believe I have to make this post. We lost an amazing buck and a huge part of our farms soul This morning to idiots.

Good morning everyone ❤️ My husband and I own and operate The Silpe Farmstead. Our farm backs up to Knowlwood Dr off of Owen's. We do own goats and don't mind people coming and visiting, however, please please please do not feed our animals. We lost one of our prized bucks this morning due to bloat. We have told people countless times. We also take in rescues and they are on strict diets as well as much needed antibiotics to help them. We are not blaming anyone, but just wanted to come on here and mention it. Our fences go right to the road so I know it's hard to keep them away. We are a small family run farm and what we have we work night and day on just like other farmers. If anyone could copy this and put in Spanish as well I would greatly appreciate it. We hope everyone has a blessed day ❤️ If you would like to see our family farm and cuddle baby goats feel free to reach out and we will gladly allow families to visit and feed them approved treats ❤️

Please please please don't feed animals if they don't belong to you 💔
