Meet Pancake, a 4-month old rooster. He ended up living in Baltimore City where roosters aren’t allowed to be kept so his owner contacted us. Inquire about meeting this sweet guy today, share if you can’t adopt or make a monetary donation to support our work.

Meet Bill. He’s a young Ameraucana rooster. He gets along well with his flock and would make a great addition to your farm. Inquire today, we have several roosters available.

We have four Pekin ducks and four Pekin drakes available for adoption. They are amazing insect eaters and love to know what’s going on around the farm. They get along well together and with geese. We prefer to adopt them in pairs unless you have ducks/geese of your own. They are the perfect addition to any farm!

Welcome to our newest little addition! He's a young barrow with a pretty serious hernia that needs repair. He's scared from being at a noisy auction and afraid to explore outside of his crate, but some good apples should make him feel better about the world. What should we name him?

Who doesn't love a nice bath!?!
