Petito - available poodle puppy
Edit: Petito has now found a person of his own. Best wishes to him and his new family.
Update September. Petito is 12 weeks old and has had both his core vaccinations and is looking for a person or family of his own. He was held for a bit longer than his littermates as he had what seemed to be digestive problems with his mother's milk, which resolved once he'd been weaned, and he's had a blood test and several vet checks which have all been normal. He will be sold with a health guarantee same as all my pups (refund of up to the price paid to help pay for vet treatment if a genetic or congenital problem develops). Please see the website for further information.
Petito is people-oriented and a happy little bugger whose tail never stops, but also a fairly undemanding, quiet puppy. He would best fit with a couple, single person, or family with older sensible children. He would be ideal for a retired person or couple wanting a companion.
He can be seen with his brother and mother Saffi, and his halfsister can also be met here. Please see the website for details.

Alpacas 2023
I have four crias. The first three are female, so their names are Not On Your Nelly, Flaming Nora, and Sweet Fanny Adams:
The fourth is a boy, so his name is Gordon Bennett:
For unknown reasons, he doesn't seem to be able to get enough milk from his mother, so he comes over for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Spotted cria
From a breeding perspective, as this is a fleece-producing livestock, I would prefer not to have this spotted pattern and for the gene to get lost and the alpacas just be solid. However, the pattern on each animal is unique and the crias are always appealing.

Yellow-shoulder turkeys
I have some yellow-shoulder heritage turkey poults for sale. The yellow-shoulder colour morph (sometimes called calico or tricolour) wasn't available in the UK so it became a pet genetics project of mine, and after managing to breed them consistently for a couple of years I've decided to make them available to other breeders who want to enjoy them. I also possibly have a few of the 'pavement pastel' version with the blue gene. Please see the page on the website under 'smallholding' for more information.
