Rocky Road Farm

My Goal
My goal to raise quality animals, meat and eggs for both my family and yours.

We'll have chicks, turkey poults, ducklings, goslings, & both eating and hatching eggs. A few adults for the freezer and for breeding.
Also, we'll have Kathadin/Dorper hair lambs, Pygmy and Pygmy/Nigerian Dwarf bottle kids, and possibily a couple of mini &/or full size Nubian kids. Also, Colored New Zealand Rabbits for meat and breeding and Lionhead bunnies for pets.
Full breed heritage hogs and Pot Belly Pigs.
Several people are requesting Pot Belly Pigs for the smaller homesteads.

I will also be putting in a garden this spring to start raising vegetables to can and barter for other vegetables/fruits we could use.
Another goal is to start a fruit orchard for our use and to barter/sell. So keep watching for that in the future.
If there is any type of animal you're looking for email us. We may know of someone who is raising what you're looking for.

LaMancha & Nubian Bottle Babies

We have a LaMancha buckling, Rowdy, he was born 12th March, 2010. A dear friend of mine, Susie, gave him to us. He is chocolate w/ white and tan markings.

We also have three little Nubian doelings from Susie, they are Kasey, Kimber, and Krissy (aka Squirt- she's tiny). I'm hoping to breed them to Rowdy or one of the Nubian bucks we have when they're old enough.

We also got two adorable little LaMancha/Angora doelings from another member of the Ozark Homesteaders yahoo group I'm a member of. Moon is black w/ white markings and ZuZu is solid black.

My goal is to be able to milk them and use the milk for our family, making cheese and soap.
