If anyone is looking for any goats, we have 2-4 for sale. 2 does, 2 wethers. Pm if interested. The 2 wethers would be perfect pets as they are tame as heck! Looking to freshen up the zoo for next year, but possibly add friendly creatures this year if these animals move fast enough.

Until you try to take baby guineas away from a mama guinea that is sitting on them, you've never had a near death experience 🤣😂. She was jumping on my head, pecking the s**t outta me, screaming, and causing all heck!!! Now I see there's more so I have to do it again later!! 😂🤣😂🤣. These are the first guineas we have hatched, so it's pretty cool!!

Hey there! Just a reminder that we are booking for offsite petting zoos and carriage rides for events, picnics, festivals, weddings, etc! We have not been open on the farm as life has been too hectic lately, but hopefully soon! We do have some offsite events on the books, but there is still room for more. :)

Good morning and Happy Spring, FINALLY!! I know you're anxious for us to open, but we are getting cleaned up after winter and with multiple jobs and obligations, that takes time. We have already started and hopefully it won't be long! We will post when we are ready to open. We are booking for events for this year and already have quite a few on the calendar. If we have not yet got back with you, we will be getting in touch 🙂

Tis the season to strip stalls and prep for spring. We are ahead of last year in progress! Yay! We stripped 3 stalls and got the last Clydesdales lot cleaned up. Next up is the chicken shack and Jingles pen! Here is a video of the sneaky guineas that love to knock my camera over. 😂

01/16/2024

So far, so good. They're both nursing good and are full of s***k! They got their navels iodined and their injections of selenium and survived their first frigid day on earth!

So we had some excitement today when I did a barn check.....remember when Lennie our ram sheep passed away last fall?? Well.....he gifted us a huge surprise today!! Meet Jack and Frost! Leroy was guarding them so no one would get too close until I found them. He does have a heart after all 😂🤣. So we set up an emergency lambing pen with a heat lamp to warm them up.

If you're looking for any last minute gifts I still have two 20 oz stainless steel tumblers. The imaging didn't turn out as dark as I would like it to be so I sell them for $25 usually I will sell these for $10 each. I can figure exact shipping if you would like them shipped. These tumblers are great at keeping your drinks either cold or hot. Message me if you're interested because I might not see comments fast enough as I don't always get notifications the same day as the comments are made.

This nut thought it was fun to be inside kicking stall walls, so I kicked him outside! Have fun Trace!

Here's to a great 2024! Carriage rides for 2023 DONE!! Now the ladies can relax and do what horses do, eat and p**p. I finally got their lot scraped today in this lovely weather. But glad we had great weather any time we had carriage rides booked.

12/16/2023

This will be our last event for the year!! We are already booking carriage rides and petting zoos for next year and seems like it's going to be jam packed like this year! Bring on 2024!!!

This past weekend we were in Piper City for carriage rides and were consistently busy, then a Private Christmas Party which was a blast (we will share those details later). Can you believe we were busy enough that we didn't even get 1 picture the whole day?? Oops! So if you have any, please share!! We will be back in Piper City next year!
