Today they are all OK, we now have 8 goslings and 24 ducklings!

This week we have have done exceptionally well re-homing pigs, in fact we have successfully re-homed 6, which is twice as many as we have re-homed in the past two years! Although great news, we have had to turn as many away. These two girls were re-homed today, originally the poor girls were dumped as piglets…
