Our Animals

Our small herd of pedigree Kunekune pigs arrived in March 2020. We have three girls, Dotty, Frankie and Lolly, as well as two castrated males, Thor and Tapas. These are our cuddle pigs and will be with us for life.  This wonderful breed from New Zealand were almost extinct back in the 70's, but were brought back from the brink by dedicated enthusiasts. 

They love our company and will happily roll over for a belly rub.

Dotty had 9 piglets, all doing well.

Meet our 26 goats; Gertie, Hazel and Red our Boer goats, Winnie our pedigree Anglo-Nubian, and our critically endangered English Goats Ethel, Cass, Bonnie, Connie, Phelicity, Phoebe and Star, plus English billy Murray.

The goats are very entertaining and love a cuddle, although beware they like zips and laces!!

5 ladies are entertaining Murray this year so we hope to have some crazy, cute kids in April.

Our geese arrived on the farm when they were just 2 days old and have blossomed into beautiful adult geese. Did you know 5 geese eat the same as one cow!!!

They are fantastic guard geese, squawking loudly when anyone new arrives. They happily free range around the farm, and then after a hard day eating they follow us back to go to bed. 

 Our flock of 26 hens and a cockerel, Nelson, keep us and our neighbours supplied with eggs. We have a nice mix of pedigrees, crosses and rescue commercial hens. They have free roam of the farm allowing them to forage naturally and produce the most delicious eggs.

Many of them enjoy a cuddle. 

We have a flock of just 18 sheep. Some are rare breed, some pedigree and some are waifs and strays we fostered and kept, including Barbara who was orphaned and unwanted and now she's with us, is a very pampered ewe.
