The 3 Goats
Brothers Cain and Abel and their half baby brother Rex
DOB: Cain and Abel July 16th, 2013
DOB: Baby Rex April 16th, 2015
Arrival date: September 2nd, 2015
Raven found an ad on craigslist that was posted of two goats needing a home or they would become food. A woman had posted in a last ditch effort to save them from her husband butchering them. I hesitated because not only were we tapped out money wise but could we really add more animals to the farm time wise? The next day Raven came to me saying that she could no longer find the ad and she was angry with me to say the least not knowing what happened to the goats. So I texted the lady and her reply was to come get them, the sooner the better as her husband was going to be butchering one this weekend. So with in an hour we drove to see them. When we got to the pen not only did we see the two goats that were advertised but there was this tiny little baby goat laying down just starring up at us. I inquired about him. The lady said, oh Rex, you don't want him, he is not a nice goat. As I continued to check out Cain & Abel I knew I had to further inquire about Rex. She just kept saying that we did not want him and that he is not like a normal friendly goat, and he wants nothing to with people that is why she did not advertise him. That's when I knew that he was a perfect match for our farm. The husband came home in the middle of us being there. He was not happy to say the least. We were persistent that we were not leaving without all three of them. I put an offer out to buy all three and after a pause the husband said I guess so if she is hell bent on him. We may have came to save Cain & Abel but Rex I think was the real reason.

Lilith
Juliana Pig
Female: Pink
Estimated DOB: 2012
Arrival date: March 2014
Lilith was rescued along with Chris P. Bacon. She was kept inside the house, upstairs in a bedroom with multiple dogs. She had never been outside a day in her life until we picked her up to bring her home. She has disfigured feet but with regular trimming at Cornell she is able to walk just fine. Lilith can be a little moody but loves attention and loves to cuddle. She will eat anything you put in front of her. She is the first one to greet you in the barn with a loud hello grunt!

Chris P. Bacon
Potbelly Pig
Male: all black
Estimated DOB: 2011
Arrival date: March 2014
Chris P. is a big teddy bear. He makes a lot of noises but he is harmless. He is a very picky eater and loves to have his belly rubbed. We call him misunderstood. We rescued him from the south side of Syracuse. He was living in a wired in area with a tarp over it in someone's backyard on the main street. He was in there for so long the ground over grew the wire fence and we had to get wire cutters to get him out. Howard saw him when he was doing a plumbing job for the owner. He is enjoying the good, free farm life!
