While things have been rather quiet around here regarding the rabbits and other critters, I did want to announce my litter of UKC Bluetick Coonhounds! Both parents are beloved family pets, but I also use them and a pup from an older litter of the same cross for pleasure hunting. Misty and Sampson had 8 girls and 3 boys born on 11/5/21! Located in NW Ohio, pm me for more info =)

We have feeders!

With our new rat racks in full production, we are able to offer live feeder rats more consistently than before. Frozen are available on a limited basis and we ask that you give us a few days to process your order.

Located in Fremont, OH, we are available to meet up most evenings, as well as during the day on Wednesdays Saturdays, and Sundays. We are hoping to get regular meetups going in various cities around the area - Bowling Green, Toledo Sandusky, Tiffin, etc. If you are interested, please message us so we can get the details worked out! Delivery is also available to Columbus and the Detroit area.

In addition to feeder rats, we all offer pets and breeders. All animals are selected primarily for temperament - biting is not tolerated, nor is maternal aggression. We believe that even feeder animals are worth putting effort into breeding for ease of handling and temperament, and they receive the same time and care our pets and breeders get. We have a wide variety of colors and coats we work with, including various blue varieties, self blacks, odd-eye, silvermane, satin, rex, martens, and more.

Feel free to message us for more info and please share this post to help spread the word! =)

What are you doing to help your animals keep cool in this heat? Our muscovy ducklings are thoroughly enjoying a swim in their little pool! The chickens and quail got a good misting from the hose, as well as the roof and shade cloth on the sides of the pen. Putting Mother Nature to work with some evaporative cooling!

Hands down, my favorite breed of chicken has always been the Salmon Faverolle. I had some back when I was in college (both times πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚) and finally have some again now!

The first batch was ordered as pullets only from Cackle Hatchery. They are now a few months old.

This past weekend, I picked up 5 more chicks locally, straight run this time. Right off the bat, I already know there is one cockerel and one pullet in the bunch. The cockerels for this breed start out with black wing feathers, and the pullets start with a mottled tan/black. Also, you can tell by the shape of the wings at this age. The cockerels will be very pointy, whereas the pullets grow in almost evenly straight across.

On a side note.. anybody looking for a Faverolle rooster? He can't stay here πŸ™„ πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

A few of the quail THOROUGHLY enjoying a sand bath. The sand was slightly damp, which is why they look like drowned rats πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

TRANSPORT
We are offering transport along this route for pretty much any animal that will fit inside a dog crate or smaller. We will NOT be transporting rabbits out of an abundance of caution due to the RHVD2 outbreaks in the US. We reserve the right to refuse transport if the animal is not in good healthy condition, regardless of species. Please inquire about rates.
