Are y'all ready? Ready for all this puppy spam? Kaan has less than 2 weeks before he will be home. Yes, it's going to be a long fun drive to and from Wisconsin. We honestly believe he is going to be so worth it.

Self sustainable living, hard work, Happiness and our piece of Heaven on Earth. How did we get here? We limit our chemical/ medication dependence.
With the ever changing scenes of what the media promotes is good for you and the growing big pharma issues- we have always been deemed as "tree huggers" and have tended to the natural as possible approach. Now more than ever, we feel that isn't only an option, as it is a necessity to eliminate processed foods, big pharma and GMOs from our lives as much as we possibly can. We are not organic- but strive to be as close to that as feasibly possible.

Guess what's been going on around here????
Yep! Preparing for...... Goats in dresses + goat yoga = hilarity
Oh, we can hardly contain our excitement. My MIL, Denise has been working behind the scenes since she left from lambing season. Just look at all this cuteness. Stay tuned for more colors, dresses and of course
05/05/2022
Are y'all ready? More puppy pics than you can stand...Kaan is coming home soon. The girls are gonna be so upset with me. They really don't like change.
05/04/2022
Behind the scenes-
actually I'm in the closet. The sheep closet to be exact. We have collected fecals, placed ear tags, gave COWP, administered vaccines for the year, place more ear tags, checked FAMACHAs, checked momma's over, gave momma's yearly boosters, drew labs for OPP and Johnes, placed more ear tags.
Did I say we placed ear tags??? 😂 😂
A few pics of the girls and guys we wrestled all day- and who will soon be going to their new farms!
Let me know- if you want on next year's lamb list. We MAY have fall lambs- no promises. After these guys and gals are gone- we are SOLD OUT. Thank you to everyone who wants our genetics 💜
04/30/2022
The boys have been separated and we are currently weaning. Soon, second set of vaccinations.
Labs have been received back from Kord on dams and sires. Every lab was Negative for OPP and Johnes.
Still need to draw genecheck (scrapie) on a few commercial girls.
I will be reaching out in the next few weeks to buyers to schedule pick ups of lambs.
As always- I will provide registration of parents (if they are registered), copies of labs, dates of vaccinations, fecals and any other treatments- such as COWP boluses, plus a bill of sale for your CPA.
That's what we call service. In addition you get our breeder support.
04/30/2022
The landscape team is hard at work today. Taking a break from fencing to let the team do some work for us while being monitored 😉.
04/30/2022
is 5 weeks old, he will be coming home soon. I know y'all are excited as we are. Cannot wait to get this lil fluffy one.
04/28/2022
The newest little chickens are about to outgrow the brooder. You ever seen a chicken with a mohawk? We decided to get a little jazzy hands for our chickens. We are welcoming polish chickens to the barnyard mix.
04/26/2022
We were heading out to run errands and LOOK who decide to make their arrival.....
Cindy Lou is a momma!!!
04/26/2022
Lambs and snuggles.
04/24/2022
Our very last bottle baby of the season. She is officially outdoors but comes in for a sip ever so often. Jenn-Jenn she is a special lil lamb
04/23/2022
It's THAT season!!! Strawberries are here. We have fresh strawberries from Brown Farms, ready to kick up production for our AMAZING jellies that are offered in the FARMSTAND, on Etsy and on our webpage. As always we try to use local sources for our goodies. Help us support our local farmers.
04/19/2022
Working the herd this AM. Momma's getting the all over treatment and rams being pulled. I will be collecting fecals soon and reaching out to our buyers.
04/16/2022
It is official! The Farm stand is now open. No, the camper is not for sale. However, it is loaded with homemade goodies and local Farm fresh goodies that are for sale. Come out and see all the hard work we have put into this camper please don't critique our Carpenter skills as they are lacking. And take home some of this amazing goodness.
04/14/2022
This may be our new guy. I REALLY like the looks of him.
Regardless- we have FINALLY decided on a name for our guy!
He shall be named Kaan pronounced KAHn. Meaning ruler. He is gonna be the next boss around here.
04/12/2022
Probably the best place to live if you are a lamb in need.
Jenn- Jenn is back in the house, because Amber needed a friend.
We were about to check the big girls over late yesterday afternoon when we noticed a lamb with a visible limp, after we got ahold of her- she was in pretty bad shape. Top of her leg had been skinned as to only the muscle showing and she was walking on her hoof, as it was bent. She has a dressing in place and a pool noodle to hold her hock straight. She isn't sure about this intensive care stuff yet- but the couch is comfy.
04/09/2022
We have chics in the brooder! We are adding a few polish chickens to the mix this year. We have had 4 broody momma's recently and we keep snatching the babies as they hatch. We changed their eggs if course as we wanted more bantams- so we replaced regular sized chicken eggs with the bantam eggs and we have been getting quite the return. As if we don't have enough chickens?
04/07/2022
Y'all ready for a sneak peak of the FARM STAND, we have been working so hard to get up and running. We out grew our little 2 pallet FARMSTAND and needed to upcycle a bit. Here she is almost ready!!
04/06/2022
Eyes open. This isn't our exact puppy, we don't know who the lucky guy is yet. But, we have our eyes on one of these kinda guys!
Cahide is getting a boyfriend soon!!
04/05/2022
Current state of affairs. We are FINISHED lambing season, have begun kidding season, we have 3 more momma's left to kid. All the bottle babies are outside and doing well, except the repetitive cries that we are killing them.
All lambs have been (named) ear tagged, CDT vaccines and COWP. I will start collecting fecals soon and then I will be reaching out to prospective buyers. I highlighted a few yesterday, to keep extra eyes on because they looked so good!
We have TONS of colors this year!
04/02/2022
Y'all remember the bottle lamb last year, the one the cat made friends with. Dolly. Here she is this year- with her ram lamb, killing motherhood.
He is kinda cute too 🤗
04/01/2022
Do you remember these tiny little babies that had to be delivered by a c-section?
Astrid and Celeste have grown by leaps and bounds.
They are now our new guard Lambs in the front yard. They run to the gate with dogs- I'm waiting for them to try to bark 😂
03/31/2022
And just like that we are goat Farmers too! 😂
Honey Lil Poo gave us two Nigerian dwarf bucklings, they weigh in at 1.9 lb and 2.2 lb.
Words cannot express how tiny and absolutely adorable these two guys are.
03/29/2022
We are supposed to be working in the woods about right now. But, Jenn-Jenn had some milk and decided she would rather a nap. So, nap it is....
-Jenn
03/27/2022
Cow therapy or halter training? I don't maybe both.
03/27/2022
Puppy announcement.....
Eylül has given birth to the babies!
New puppy coming soon. Not that we have anything else to do or anything 😂
We are bringing Cahide a boyfriend on board. Plus, Sophie and Xena will welcome some help around here. Our herd / flock is growing and so is the coyote population, we hear them as to what sounds they are getting closer and closer. In order to protect our investments we must do what is necessary.
Stay tuned for more cute puppy pics! 😊
03/25/2022
Ayden and the rest of the cows were moved to the sheep pasture, and we're going to let the girls back into the woods starting tomorrow. He is not 100% sure about this situation. But he sure is a handsome little fella.

NBM Farm & Pettig Livestock Katahdin Online Production Sale // All bidding ends June 7
LOT 4: RIV 756 x HSC 1211 Quantum Leap
This lamb is the twin sister to our fastest-growing lamb this spring (lot 7). She isn't as flashy as some but is fleshy and stocky. She was twin born and raised by a two-year-old dam that has raised 5 lambs in the past two years. She should mature into quite a brood ewe.

LOT 3: SHU 4064 "Treadstone" x LCL 08-023
Long bodied, great topped, heavy b***d, and big-footed. I expect him to mature into a moderately sized ram that will be perfect for more commercial oriented flocks. Twin born and raised. He was the first of the entire flock to start shedding back in February, never had fuzz over the winter, only thicker, denser hair. His dam has been a very consistent producer for us having lambed twice in 2019 (quads in January, twins in September); this is the 3rd stud ram she's raised, breeds naturally for falls, and placed 5th as a yearling at the Missouri State Fair. His sire, Treadstone, was 2nd January Ram Lamb at NAILE in 2019. Color - white with red freckling on legs and face.
