    About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. We dream that someday we can transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.

Ben and Meg Hollar have been raising and self-butchering their pigs for about three years. Their two sows gave birth during the past week. The newest babies were in the most recent video (Friday). The other new piglets were featured in Tuesday's or Wednesday's video.

Then throw it in her litter box. It wasn't long before she was going in her box full time. She even taught my puppy how to use the litter box.

    They do get pushy and dangerous, there is a reason why, in the starting scene of The Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy falls in the pigpen that everyone panics and rushes to haul her out quick. People that have never owned pigs always think it is funny, but people who have owned pigs know that she was in real danger at that point.

    Here's a little story about Sookie the Beaver Retriever. Last month, we were in the backyard hanging out. She was doing her usual plowing through everything, checking to see if there were any new smells or something new to entertain herself with. I was doing cat chores & fussing over my plants. She started barking, growling, jumping around something I couldn't see in the pine & cedar shavings.
    To my amazement, this thing was a small fluffy bird feather! It obviously was a big deal to her, and then she ate it.
    Good thing I didn't get any baby chicks like I wanted to it would or could have turned out badly. She's a good-natured dog. I kinda think it was a first experience
    Freak out. She still eats feathers! As for this dream of her having chicken friends, let's just say the thought of her eating a chick nauseates me.
    Have a great weekend..

      🍜🌌You can get a rescue chicken pretty easily and get yourself a shock collar. They're not very bad they're just startling. They have less shocked than a triple a battery powered tens unit. Let your dog wear it for a while beforehand so that they don't associated with the shock. Then train them not to attack your chickens. If a dog is never seen a chicken before this works pretty well. Unless they have an incredibly high prey drive, but that's generally pretty obvious beforehand. I've had too many dogs and a lot of chickens.

    You could have made your pigs more friendly if you wanted, but I am not sure there's much point to that when you know they will get the chop. I remember as a kid the place I spent my time (kine an afterschool thing with chickens and all sorts of animals and you having your own plot where you had your little house and you could keep like a rabbit), got a pig to feed up to slaughter. It was a he(barrow, I assume) . It was a more or less public place where you could get in and after 6pm crawl the fence if you wanted. But some boys abused him and he bit one pretty badly in the knee. (They went into his pen). But I was always able to go in there and sit with him and pet him in his bed of straw. I wouldn't have been more than 13 so I am not sure I understood what would happen, otherwise I wouldn't have befriended him like that. I think the adults working at the place and had the responsibilities of maintaining it, were nervous cos he was getting to a size where they were not comfortable getting into a pen with an animal they never bothered to befriend. So they asked me, I remember changing his straw bed (where he did not shit btw lol) a few times. I would say pigs are not the BEST pets cos they are too intelligent and will try manipulate you. But he was nice and at least he had me as a friend in his short life.

    our silkie rooster (Zoom) was exactly like your little racing striped one haha! silkies are very hard to tell what gender they are for months. we were hoping that it would be a hen, but we ended up with a rooster. he's a really cool rooster through, so we kept him :)

    So since you plan not doing pigs again next year, are you planning doing another experiment with an livestock breed next year like Sheep or Goats?

    The teenage chickens look a lot more friendly than the other adult chickens. Just an observation lol.

    So, I vote to add Donkeys to the farm. They would be another level of security for the farm ........and they are stinking cute
