Our homebred 2021 Anatolian Saint Shepherd, Nashrullah, (Ben x Miss Honey) is a dual-purpose farm and Livestock Guardian. He's a massive, independently natural expert in flock/livestock, farm-asset, and family protection.
Our multi-purpose farm guradian, 2021 Saint Shepherd, Winslow, is the sire of our 2023 and 2024 litters. Sadly, he was lost due to the complications of a traumatic brain injury. He was a loyal, attentive working dog for all-purpose shepherding and draft work.
Grassfed Organic Dairy Beef
Our beef is 100% grassfed, no concentrates or gmo-grains ever, our pastures are sustainably kept, mowed once/year and never sprayed with chemicals. The steers graze grass all summer and consume bale after bale of our homegrown organic mixed grass and clover hay from early-Autumn until late-spring.
We offer only a handful of delicious, humanely-treated, sustainably cared for young steers per year....

You'll want to see a few more pictures of the beautiful, genetically diverse Rainbow Ameraucana we breed for large misty blue and minty green eggs, uniquely beautiful feather patterns, and savory meat.
Our Ameraucana are ideal for a striking project flock.
We offer a wide variety of beautiful feather patterns while we stay true to our goal of breeding high-quality, dual-purpose blue egg layers.
We keep only the fanciest mixed-color Ameraucana hens in our hatching egg flock; and must part with hens for not being "Ameraucana enough".... beard/muffs gone missing or off leg colors.
~ From $20/hen ~
It's all very arbitrary... as the hatching egg market demands.
Our loss is your gain!
