We have been trying hard to get our own farm for the last 5-6 yrs but the economy has thrown many kinks into our plans. We are still working as hard as we can to make this happen (and soon!), but now the place where we keep our 'farm' animals is going up for sale. We have no choice now but to find homes for many of our beloved pets.
We need to find a new place for our 3 goats, many of the rabbits, and our chickens. I have some friends that have offered to take some of them in, but if you are interested in giving a great home to anyone here, please let me know.
I am asking $275 for the 3 goats, and I will include any supplies, feed, and hay that I have (probably about 20 bales).
I am selling my trio of Japanese Harlequins for $60 (or if you just want a pair $45).
I have a few Silkie chickens I should find a place for as well. A gorgeous red partridge roo, and maybe 2 hens if I can manage to part with them, as well as 5 youngsters. Giving up 10 years of careful breeding these birds is the hardest part of all of this. Moonlite is 7 yrs old and is a granddaughter of my beloved Punky. Gibbles is a special little miracle. Dulce is a rare dominant white & gold that I have been breeding towards for over 7 years. It's just heart breaking. If I do have to part with them all I would like them to go to a home where when we do finally move, I can get them (or some of their offspring) back to restart my flock.
My Velveteens will not be leaving. I can squeeze them, and some of the kids' 4H rabbits in at home. I just need to get 1-2 more stacks of cages. I may have to give up my Flemish pair. Those will be some kick butt breeding rabbits. $150 for the pair. The buck is pedigreed with over 20 legs on his ped. The doe has been BOB or BOS both times she was shown.
Please pray that we can find the right place to move and that God would provide the funds that we need.
