Call Ducks or Bantams...Crazy Animals Around the Farm

[MatthewsHomestead]

Terrible. I'm a home body myself. I bet your happy at home. Hows the hubby and kids doing? What animals do you still have?

Still have Fancy the chocolate Orpington, three bunnies, Belle the dog that's not a pup anymore, three ducks, Rose who is now queen B*#$%. Also have a trio of mottled orpingtons, 40 chicks of various breeds, and 4 other horses. Working on getting a 501c3 for them and some dedicated land for the horses. They are rescues I've been getting weight and rehabilitating.

Im good. I got a new Poodle puppy named her Darla and have Speckled Sussex Chicks. I also have Silkies. Plus one Rosecomb Hen/Pullet.

Ooohhhh. Pics please!

This is Sully. He was our worst to come in so far. We weren't sure he was going to make it. You could fit your fingers through his ribs. But he made it through QT and he's at our place now. Excuse the temporary stalls... still under construction. But he is putting on some good weight little by little.

Thank you. The Hubbs doesn't understand how attached they all are to me. He says I'm a whisperer or something. It's all just taking the time to work with them. All critters really. There's more to it than just feed and water. Nature Boy is my biggest baby of them all though.

Matt riding Tilley. Her weight isn't fully 100% for my big booty so he has been riding her. She does not like a bit. Bitless she does great. I've got to order an Argentine bit bc lady said that's what she used on her. She is a mutt. We believe part twh, saddle red, but definitely has missouri fox trotter. You can see it in her gait and the way she stands.
