Oly Farms We started our journey with Clydesdales in 2009. We have since gathered a few more animals and want to share our interest with you!

Come on out and get some hands on experience with animals! Most times we also have a Clydesdale available for rides! Hours will be posted weekly on page.

While the weather is getting nicer, we have some clean-up to do to get ready to go before we can open for the year. It's going to take quite a bit but I'm sure we will get it done and everybody is anxious to see you guys again! The baby goats and lambs are all ready for visitors! However the emus aren't going to be outside for around another month yet so you might have to wait to see them but I promise you it will be worth it!

Happy golden 17th Birthday to Mr. Patrick!!

We are upgrading our picnic tables for on farm petting zoos and these need to go! FREE for the taking, the red one obviously needs boards, the metal frame is still in great shape.

We are looking for these two types of kennels to build an enclosure for the emus and upgrade a couple things in the barn. Before we purchase new, does anyone have anything in good shape for sale?

These Emus are growing like weeds and just got a bigger pen to live in til they get some feathers. Until then, they are inside.

Here's the surprise!!! We now have 2 baby Emus!!!!! They are currently about 3 weeks old and will need heat for three months while they lose their baby fuzz and get their feathers. Getting them this small and hand raising them makes them tame and easier to work with them as they grow. They will be an on farm only exhibit. 🙂.

We hate to do this, but there will be no carriage rides today at Piper City. The rain is moving in with no breaks and that would be miserable for all. Stay warm and dry!

May being Trojan Troy
May being Trojan Troy

Alot of you on here are May and Pat fans....Pat usually does the Trojan Troy mascot for our local Dwight Trojan Football team. Well, Pat came up lame on a front leg and he wasn't ready to go play on a field, so May subbed for him. She's only been in parades in which they wear blinders on their bridles so they can see only in front of them and they're on roads. The riding bridle does not have those and she's never been on a football field with people and players everywhere. She conquered this task and did great!! Way to go May!

Meet Miss Moo

Come see us at the Thresherman's Central States Reunion in rural Pontiac tomorrow August 30th 10-4, 31st 10-5, and September 1st 11-4! #OlyFarms #supportlocal #babycowsoftiktok

Well, these guys are 3 days early! I was just going to take out the turner today! 😳. We will have some guinea keets available if anyone's interested.

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. 😂

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

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