There’s always a risk when you take in something so fragile. That was the case with Sq**rt. We did everything we could, but his body continued to betray him. It never gets easier. Rest easy, little Sq**rt. I’m sure you’re running as fast as your legs can carry you with your new found freedom. 🐥🥺❤️

The silver lining: His pal Penguin has made a full recovery and is rocking life! 🐥💪🏻🖤

Today we lost our sweet Poppy. She was the smallest of the flock, but she was certainly mighty. She was one of our very first chickens and she showed us what an impact such a tiny being can have on your heart. The bantam crew will never be quite the same without you. Rest easy, little lady. We will certainly miss you dearly down here…❤️🥺

Mavis & Midge are not one to turn down food so we knew something was up when they snubbed breakfast yesterday. (This is an old picture to put it out to the universe to get them eating again 🙏🙏🙏.)

Well it’s been over a day since their last full meal and their appetite and thirst remains low. This is very dangerous in these cold conditions.

Both girls are suffering from (tw: gross) the squirts. Diarrhea is serious in big girls like this so it’s important we have the vet out to help treat the symptoms and look into the cause.

Emergency measures are in place and the vet is slated for tomorrow. More info to come!

Hey Schoharie County, have you seen Ziggy? He went missing from Crommie Road in Carlisle sometime last month. He's a regular visitor to the sanctuary (he is a friend & neighbor's cat, not one of ours). Any information on his whereabouts would be more than appreciated!

I’m sure that many of you have noticed Bess’s giant ear tag dangling from her right ear. It’s quite hard to miss a giant, orange, seemingly uncomfortable hunk of plastic imposing on her radiant beauty.

We decided that it was finally time to remove it.
Why did it take us so long?
Well, we have heard many varying opinions on whether to remove it or not. Some that even scared us.

This giant, orange rectangle haunted me every time I would look into her beautiful eyes. I felt like I was failing her. Like I wasn’t seeing her for who she was.

Bess, you will never be a number. You are SOMEONE, not SOMETHING. The hole left behind may be a reminder of your dark past, but it says nothing about your beautiful future, sweet girl. ❤️🐷

And yes, Bingo got hers removed as well 🐷💪🏻💛
