Wishing Well Homestead

Well, it turns out we owe Papa Pat an apology. 😂

Last month we pregnancy tested all of our goats, and every single one came back negative. Even though their bellies were looking suspiciously round, we figured it was just because Papa Pat is a softy and hands out snacks like he’s running an all-you-can-eat buffet.

As the weeks went on, those bellies kept growing and udders started filling out. We joked that if they were actually pregnant, we’d probably be looking at babies at the end of the month.

Apparently Daisy didn’t get that memo.

This afternoon we walked out to the goat house and found a surprise waiting for us—Daisy had delivered THREE beautiful bucklings! 🐐🐐🐐

No warning. No signs. No time to prepare. Just three perfect little boys hanging out like they’d been paying rent there the whole time.

Farm life keeps you humble. One minute you’re convinced your goats are just spoiled and overfed, and the next minute you’re counting baby goats. 😂

Welcome to the farm, little guys! We can’t wait to watch you grow. ❤️🐐🐐🐐

My favorite part of homesteading! 🪴 🪏

Nothing makes us happier than happy customers… especially the tiny peeping kind 🐣🥹

A teacher in Flint reached out because her class wanted to hatch chicks, so we donated 24 fertile eggs for their classroom adventure. And guess what?! NINETEEN little fluff balls hatched!!! 🎉🐥

Watching kids get excited about life on the farm, learning where animals come from, and seeing those babies hatch is exactly why we love doing this. From eggs… to peeps… to a classroom full of screaming excited kids 😂❤️

19/24 is an awesome hatch rate and we are SO egg-cited for those kiddos!! 🥚✨

The homestead just got a whole lot louder… and a whole lot cuter 🐷💕

Picked up our baby piggies today and we are officially in our “obsessed” era. By far our favorite animals—equal parts chaos, personality, and nonstop snacking machines.

They may be tiny now, but we know the deal… 6 months of living their best pig life, eating like kings, and then… well… they don’t overstay their welcome 😅🥓

It’s the only relationship where you fall in love and plan the menu at the same time. Homesteading is wild like that.

Well… my promise to my husband that I wouldn’t buy any more animals lasted a solid 3 months. 😅

But our girls needed a gentleman all their own, right?

Meet Mordi (Mordecai) — our new registered blue-eyed moonspotted Mini Nubian stud muffin. 🐐💙

Let’s just say… the farm rules are more like guidelines around here. 🌙

Good weather = lazy goats. ☀️🐐

The sunshine came out and the goats decided it was the perfect day for sunbathing and doing absolutely nothing. Just laying around, soaking it up, and living their best lives. Honestly… they might have the right idea. 😎

Looking into buying our meat chickens for this next year. We buy from Freedom Ranger Hatchery https://www.freedomrangerhatchery.com/hatcheries/freedom-ranger-hatchery/ It is more cost effective the more we purchase at a time. Is anyone looking into getting meat chickens that would like to order with us? We get the Freedom Ranger Color Yield. They typically take 8-10 weeks from chicks to butcher. Message me if interested!

In 2005, Kendall and his wife Ginger started hatching chicks in their two-car detached garage. The operation eventually expanded and was launched as Fox Far ...

The piggly wiggly’s went to market! 🐷 Hanging weights from 197 to 250 — not too shabby! We’ll miss their snorts, squeals, and daily mud spa sessions, but can’t wait to fill 10 freezers with delicious home-raised pork this week! 🥓💦
