We have just taken on Joe the Ram, he is a young and friendly entire Ram. He is now sharing a field with 5 turkeys, 2 goats and 2 ponies.
He greets us every day, patiently waiting for us. In the next few weeks we can get him castrated, he can then join our other sheep, but not before, we have too many as it is!
If you can offer a home to Joe or our other sheep, please get in touch.

This guy came to us today, the member of the public who brought him said, ” I have a huge hedgehog for you”. We soon diagnosed balloon syndrome which, left untreated is almost always fatal. The hedgehogs literally inflate, as air or gas is trapped under their skin, they inflate so much that they end…
This female fox cub was admitted yesterday in a bit of a mess, very dehydrated and with a severely infected jaw. On admission we gave her fluids, pain relief and started antibiotics.
