Our newest Dutch babies.
Locally owned breeders of affordable show stock for young people wanting to compete without breaking
Operating as usual
Our newest Dutch babies.
Three more new friends, new colors for us. Kate and Pippa are larger chocolate Dutch we will be breeding next year with William a bronze color.
Harry and Megan are still looking for a new home. Let us know if you are interested. They are a small Dutch, steel pattern, good for breeding or small pets, but these two are not showable because their pattern is off.
We brought home a new breed of rabbits for our farm. Meet "Philip and Elizabeth ".
These two are a doe and buck, tri-color pattern Mini-rex, orange and black (shown as broken). Gorgeous velvety fur. We will be breeding them next season, so keep us in mind for 4H!
Okay, here's our babies, ready to find new homes! Please PM me for details.
Silver Fox: Pedigreed, show quality, 3 does, 2 bucks, all 8 week litter mates.
Dutch: 2 mis-marked steel, but lovely coloring, non Pedigreed, 8 week litter mates, 1 doe, 1 buck.
*Also, we have our 1st successful Rhinelander offspring! We ended up with 1 excellent marked doe, 2 sport bucks...so for now we're keeping to rebreed with our others. Hoping to get this breed lineage built up!
More cuteness 😍 Summer litters are at 8 weeks!

Enjoy a glimpse into our farm during a massive winter storm!
Don't forget to LIKE our video!
A winter's day on our farm! See some baby piggies, our snowy flock, and lots of snow!
Say hello to Georgio! He is one of our Harlequin babies! He is still growing and his pattern is just now beginning to show. He will be bred this summer to our two other female Harlequins. We will feature our other females on later posts! All of our Harlequins are Japanese variety. Keep us in mind if you are looking for this breed!
Just a friendly reminder to our rabbit friends (and of course, all outdoor animals) ...be sure to keep your animals warm and try to keep them from cold exposure. Using old blankets, straw, cardboard, and more - to insulate your hutches! It has been incredibly cold this winter! Be sure you are checking water for freezing and ensuring that your rabbits have plenty to eat and drink to stay warm and build up winter fat! All of our rabbits are housed inside and well insulated, but we do still worry about loss in these frigid temps!
Just in time for winter - we have a BIG stock of children's snow pants! Each pair is $5! All sizes are 4/5 or 6 - youth sizes only. Brand new, never worn. Most have tags, some do not but are all from the same lot. PM me for more details!
Our New Logo!
We had shirts made for all of our immediate family for Christmas. Check out this shot from Uncle Nico!
As part of our new updates - we want to introduce you to our animals and breeds. We have "sort of" taken on the title of foster home for small animals (poultry/rabbits).
This is "Millie" - she is one of our rescue rabbits. She is looking for a new home!
About Millie - we rescued her in August of 2021, as a small newborn, with her mother and uncle, both chestnut / tortoise colored mini-lops. We do not know her exact age. We also rescued 3 other rabbits with her family. We do not know the breed of her father. She appears much like a Mini-Satin, but we do not have any breeding info or DNA. As you can see she has started molting on her bottom coat - so we are unsure if her color will change. Up until now she has been completely smooth and black. She spent five months in the same pen as her mother (while with us), and we just moved her to her own home this past week. She has become very social and very curious!
If you are looking for a great starter rabbit, she would be a great match for you! Please PM us if you would like to rehome her or have questions!
January 2022 - First two litters that arrived in December - 3 FEEDER GILTS available, 3 BREEDER GILTS available. PM us for more details.
They are crossbred litters from our herd boar (Tomcat grandson). Breeder gilts dam is a High Stakes sow.
From our Farm Family to yours...Happy 2022!
Welcome to 2022!
We will be updating with our photos, events, and farm news this week. We have sadly neglected our page, but have been doing a lot of research on videos, marketing, etc. and hope to revamp our postings!!
Please LIKE and SHARE our page! We are eager to build up our subscriber base to promote our farm happenings!
It has been too long since we posted! Currently, we have Chesters and crosses for early fairs. Several litters due in February.
We have pigs available! They are priced for 4hers not wanting to break the bank and we have feeders, also. Better pictures coming soon. Polands, durocs, chesters, herefords, and crossbreeds are ready to go. Text or call 260 255 9882 to set up a viewing.
FOR SALE
Our 20-9 Black Dog X Rascal sow is available for purchase. We simply need space for new gilts. She is a P4 we acquired from Shipley Swine Genetics and has raised litters of 7, 13, 11, and is currently nursing 7. She can be weaned at purchasers convenience any time after April 19. Thanks for looking. Please share with anyone you may know who may be interested.
Happy National Pig Day, everyone!
Last February litter arrived today. Nine Polands out of Boss Move on our Whip It gilt from Scott Show Pigs. Last week, we had 6 Cocktail Red Durocs from our Salute gilt, and our 2 Chester litters (Banjo String X Stonhenge and Walk the Line X Undisputed). Thanks to Shaffer's Goldrush and Southern Gold Sires for quality semen, Jeremy Scott and Clete Bailey for quality females, and Aaron Donley of Donley's show pigs for quality advice. Some of these, along with our January Hereford litter will be available soon.
Our Ring of Fire litter arrived today. 7 unassisted (5 boars, 2 gilts). Thanks to Southern Gold Sires and Donley's show pigs. https://southerngoldsires.com/boar/ring-of-fire/
It is Sunday, after all.
Big thanks to both Shaffer's Goldrush and Southern Gold Sires for helping us get the boars we wanted for a few unexpected breedings over the last couple days. I can't say enough about how good both organizations are to work with. Thank you!
The gilts are trying to make use of shade in the sweltering September heat.
We still have a few feeder pigs available.
Just a few more pictures from earlier in the year.
Jared Snyder of Snyder Show Pigs graciously sold us this Sweet Dreams (LTD) gilt this summer. Thanks to Shaffer's Goldrush, we have Nuclear arriving tomorrow for her so we can put a competitive Spot litter on the ground in January.
Ok, this January Stonehenge gilt from our Bailey Chester sow was actually supposed to mate with Walk the Line. I made an error on an earlier post. This gilt's mother ( the sow we introduced yesterday) is being paired with Banjo String from Southern Gold Sires. Due to a UPS mixup, we will be mating this gilt with Nuclear, a Spot boar at Shaffer's Goldrush for what should be an interesting crossbred litter in January.
