00:00:05.700 --> 00:00:07.600
if

00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:38.800
here

00:00:46.100 --> 00:00:47.000
we'll go bowling.

00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:21.500
you

00:01:24.300 --> 00:01:27.300
even Farm is a rescue and Sanctuary

00:01:27.300 --> 00:01:28.500
primarily for pigs.

00:01:29.900 --> 00:01:32.900
Or home to 123 pigs at

00:01:32.900 --> 00:01:35.700
the moment mostly pot belly pigs like Guapo

00:01:35.700 --> 00:01:38.400
and also some standard breeds of

00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.700
pig. What would traditionally be called farm pigs.

00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.700
We rescue these guys from all sorts

00:01:45.700 --> 00:01:48.900
of situations abandonment abuse

00:01:48.900 --> 00:01:51.300
neglect. We've saved a few from Slaughter.

00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:55.300
And we rehabilitate the ones that need

00:01:55.300 --> 00:01:58.400
it. We try to adopt the Potbelly's out

00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:01.600
as pets as often as we can and we

00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:05.200
provide Sanctuary to the ones that we can't adopt out in

00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:08.000
five years. We've rescued over 250 pigs.

00:02:07.900 --> 00:02:10.400
We've been able to place about a

00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.400
hundred more than a hundred and forever homes

00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:14.400
as pets.

00:02:15.100 --> 00:02:18.400
And home to 123 at

00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:18.600
the moment.

00:02:24.600 --> 00:02:27.300
So before hog, even Farm was a

00:02:27.300 --> 00:02:30.500
thing. I was managing a camera store down in

00:02:30.500 --> 00:02:30.900
Littleton.

00:02:31.700 --> 00:02:35.400
And going to graduate school

00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:36.300
for business degree.

00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:41.200
Got pet pigs. We started with one pet pig six

00:02:40.200 --> 00:02:43.200
years ago totally fell in love

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:48.000
with her and she changed our lives. We

00:02:46.200 --> 00:02:49.500
thought we'd want a second pet

00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:52.500
pig and during that time realized the

00:02:52.500 --> 00:02:55.400
need for rescue is really big and there weren't

00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:58.900
a lot of rescue options here in Colorado. So put together

00:02:58.900 --> 00:02:59.600
a business plan.

00:03:00.500 --> 00:03:04.000
Thought it would take five years to do anything took off

00:03:03.100 --> 00:03:04.700
in about six months.

00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.100
So we've moved twice to accommodate the

00:03:08.100 --> 00:03:11.400
growing demands of the rescue and I was able to quit my

00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.200
day job in 2016 to take care of the Pigs

00:03:14.200 --> 00:03:14.600
full time.

00:03:31.300 --> 00:03:34.500
Having one Central Building to house every single

00:03:34.500 --> 00:03:37.700
one of our pigs is really important, especially this

00:03:37.700 --> 00:03:40.700
time of year because when we get blizzards and

00:03:40.700 --> 00:03:43.300
severe storms going around to 18

00:03:43.300 --> 00:03:46.400
different pig pens is not safe for me

00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:49.000
in particular. So we're building a

00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.700
40 by 80 foot pole barn that will have stalls and

00:03:52.700 --> 00:03:55.100
we'll have all 123 of our

00:03:55.100 --> 00:03:55.500
residents.

00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.100
So we had the groundbreaking done a couple of

00:03:59.100 --> 00:04:02.800
months ago, and it's ready to go for construction to

00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:03.000
start.

00:04:04.100 --> 00:04:07.500
I think we're supposed to have the barn Builder out

00:04:07.500 --> 00:04:10.100
here in like two or three weeks, which is really

00:04:10.100 --> 00:04:13.500
exciting. And once they come out they're gonna

00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:16.400
be able to construct it within a week or so, and we've

00:04:16.400 --> 00:04:20.200
got a hundred percent of the funds raised for the construction, but

00:04:19.200 --> 00:04:22.400
we still need to raise funds to cover utilities.

00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.200
We've learned hard lessons and kind of

00:04:34.200 --> 00:04:37.900
figured it out as we've gone along but it helps

00:04:37.900 --> 00:04:40.700
that we both have a business mindset aside from

00:04:40.700 --> 00:04:43.400
this and and before coming into hog even.

00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:47.500
Because I think some people that want to start a rescue just

00:04:47.500 --> 00:04:49.700
have no idea about the business side of it.

00:04:50.500 --> 00:04:53.100
Like we have to make sure that we bring in

00:04:53.100 --> 00:04:55.700
the appropriate funds. We know what our overhead is.

00:04:56.500 --> 00:04:59.200
I do draw a salary from hog Haven Farm,

00:04:59.200 --> 00:05:02.900
but if we don't have enough to cover our monthly expenses

00:05:02.900 --> 00:05:05.200
for the pigs, I don't get paid and that's

00:05:05.200 --> 00:05:05.600
part of

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:09.200
You know the governance from our board of directors, it's written into

00:05:09.200 --> 00:05:12.600
our bylaws and I think it's very important like they come

00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:14.700
first. This isn't about me. It's about them.

00:05:34.700 --> 00:05:37.500
Oh, this is also the man. Oh, yeah

00:05:37.500 --> 00:06:01.700
the boy.

00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:08.300
It's pretty Stern.

00:06:15.100 --> 00:06:18.100
still play with we got according to

00:06:18.500 --> 00:06:19.700
espresso we're gonna

00:06:24.700 --> 00:06:25.200
Chase up here

00:06:25.500 --> 00:06:26.500
It's a good season.

00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:33.700
6 you know,

00:06:33.700 --> 00:06:38.000
sometimes you just be happy. What are

00:06:37.100 --> 00:06:53.800
we move here? We really

00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:56.700
wanted to adopt him. So we came out and we got him. How's

00:06:56.700 --> 00:06:59.100
that working out great. He gets along with our

00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:02.200
other Pig. There's a best of friends. Yeah so far. It's been

00:07:02.200 --> 00:07:05.400
pretty good Kramer was a little Good Ship first real skittish as

00:07:05.400 --> 00:07:09.100
we said it came out of a hoarding situation. So she wasn't

00:07:09.100 --> 00:07:13.000
very painful friendly then like people at first but now he's great. He's like

00:07:12.200 --> 00:07:17.400
a month in my office before, you know,

00:07:17.400 --> 00:07:21.200
he discovered Valley Road the whole

00:07:21.200 --> 00:07:21.900
human thing.

00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:28.900
and if

00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:43.100
you

00:07:59.200 --> 00:08:01.100
Today is pippi's fifth birthday.

00:08:02.500 --> 00:08:05.900
She was our first Pig She's queen bee the

00:08:05.900 --> 00:08:08.500
one that started all of this and made us

00:08:08.500 --> 00:08:11.400
fall in love with Piggies and decide to run a

00:08:11.400 --> 00:08:13.900
rescue. So we've got a little birthday treat for her.

00:08:15.700 --> 00:08:18.500
And I'm gonna sing Happy Birthday to her so she feels special.

00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:23.200
Happy birthday to you.

00:08:24.900 --> 00:08:27.300
Happy birthday to you.

00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.800
Happy birthday, dear pictures.

00:08:37.300 --> 00:08:38.900
Lady come down.

00:08:39.700 --> 00:08:40.500
Come here lady.

00:08:44.400 --> 00:08:45.600
Right looking for snacks.

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:53.200
It was like 5pm Friday of Labor Day

00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:56.500
weekend, and I came to

00:08:56.500 --> 00:08:59.900
a stop on I-25 and the

00:08:59.900 --> 00:09:02.600
vehicle behind me didn't notice the traffic

00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:03.400
was stopping.

00:09:04.300 --> 00:09:07.900
Until it was pretty much too late and

00:09:07.900 --> 00:09:10.400
rear-ended me. He was

00:09:10.400 --> 00:09:13.500
probably going 35 miles an hour upon point of impact.

00:09:14.300 --> 00:09:15.700
Pushed me into the car in front of me.

00:09:16.700 --> 00:09:17.000
but

00:09:18.100 --> 00:09:21.300
the most significant thing from that car accident

00:09:22.400 --> 00:09:25.400
is when he collided with the back of my vehicle

00:09:25.400 --> 00:09:28.100
it blew out the glass window on the back of

00:09:28.100 --> 00:09:28.700
my SUV.

00:09:30.300 --> 00:09:32.000
And that moment.

00:09:33.500 --> 00:09:36.400
Triggered memories from Columbine that I

00:09:36.400 --> 00:09:39.100
completely repressed hadn't thought

00:09:39.100 --> 00:09:39.900
about it in years.

00:09:41.500 --> 00:09:42.100
so

00:09:43.400 --> 00:09:46.600
On April 20th of 99. I was

00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:47.200
a freshman.

00:09:48.300 --> 00:09:50.800
I was walking back to class from the attendance office.

00:09:52.400 --> 00:09:55.000
And behind me were the front doors to the

00:09:55.300 --> 00:09:58.200
high school and at the other end of the halls and other set of

00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:00.900
doors, I think is the West entrance of the building.

00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:03.600
And as I was walking to the gym.

00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:08.700
There was a commotion at those doors and I

00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:11.500
didn't know what was going on. I thought it was either fight

00:10:11.500 --> 00:10:14.900
breaking out or senior prank, but those

00:10:14.900 --> 00:10:17.800
last doors got broken and

00:10:17.800 --> 00:10:20.900
I very vividly remember that noise and I

00:10:20.900 --> 00:10:23.400
kind of laughed about it because I was like,

00:10:23.400 --> 00:10:24.400
oh somebody's gonna be a deep.

00:10:25.700 --> 00:10:29.300
Those glass doors that I saw break

00:10:28.300 --> 00:10:32.300
were shot out

00:10:32.300 --> 00:10:33.300
by the shooters.

00:10:34.100 --> 00:10:37.400
And the first victim of the shooting Rachel Scott

00:10:37.400 --> 00:10:39.900
was murdered on the other side of those floors.

00:10:42.900 --> 00:10:43.100
So

00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:49.300
I had guilt for a while of

00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:53.200
laughing at that because I did laugh at it when

00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:54.000
I went back to class.

00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:56.600
um

00:10:58.500 --> 00:10:58.900
and just

00:11:01.800 --> 00:11:03.300
just you feeling.

00:11:11.100 --> 00:11:14.500
So there's a very distinct sound

00:11:14.500 --> 00:11:17.000
from the glass doors at the school

00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:18.100
getting shot out.

00:11:19.500 --> 00:11:22.400
That correlated with the sound of my back windshield.

00:11:23.300 --> 00:11:24.800
blowing out from Impact

00:11:25.700 --> 00:11:28.600
And just brought everything.

00:11:29.400 --> 00:11:32.200
To the surface and I had repressed it

00:11:32.200 --> 00:11:34.900
that whole time like I never talked about it.

00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:44.000
There I am.

00:11:49.400 --> 00:11:52.400
When you get impacted your brain will Slam

00:11:52.400 --> 00:11:55.400
against the back of your skull. And then with the Whiplash motion

00:11:55.400 --> 00:11:58.100
will Slam in front of your skull. So you end up getting a

00:11:58.100 --> 00:12:00.700
concussion on both sides of your head. So I had that

00:12:03.300 --> 00:12:06.000
I started having vision problems.

00:12:07.100 --> 00:12:10.300
So I ended up having to go to an occupational therapist.

00:12:11.700 --> 00:12:12.100
and then

00:12:13.500 --> 00:12:17.500
because of my PTSD

00:12:16.500 --> 00:12:17.900
coming back.

00:12:18.900 --> 00:12:21.300
With the Columbine situation I ended

00:12:21.300 --> 00:12:23.800
up going to an EMDR therapist as well.

00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:27.800
And I had to stop working temporarily because

00:12:27.800 --> 00:12:30.900
of my head injury so had to

00:12:30.900 --> 00:12:33.600
give up, you know work, which is what I thrived on.

00:12:34.400 --> 00:12:37.300
And stay at home not watch TV not

00:12:37.300 --> 00:12:40.300
use the computer not read. I drop out of my graduate

00:12:40.300 --> 00:12:40.600
program.

00:12:43.400 --> 00:12:45.100
And I found the only way to cope.

00:12:45.900 --> 00:12:48.500
Was with this pig right

00:12:48.500 --> 00:12:49.600
here hippie.

00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:54.400
So at that time, I'd had Pippi for almost three

00:12:54.400 --> 00:12:56.200
months. Maybe let's see.

00:12:56.800 --> 00:12:59.000
a little over three months almost four months

00:13:00.300 --> 00:13:03.500
and I honestly think that

00:13:03.500 --> 00:13:06.400
pippy saved my life during that

00:13:06.400 --> 00:13:06.500
time.

00:13:19.500 --> 00:13:19.800
here

00:14:01.800 --> 00:14:03.100
This is little primrose.

00:14:04.300 --> 00:14:05.800
She's a week old today.

00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:10.200
And she wasn't nursing from her. Mom

00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:13.500
properly wasn't gaining weight and wasn't

00:14:13.500 --> 00:14:14.100
thriving.

00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:19.400
So the lady who had her wanted to

00:14:19.400 --> 00:14:23.200
surrender her to someone that could provide proper

00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:25.200
care to hand raise her since she

00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:26.300
wasn't getting proper nutrition.

00:14:27.300 --> 00:14:30.200
And it can be pretty tricky hand raising a piglet. So

00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:34.900
she's surrendered to hog even now and

00:14:34.900 --> 00:14:37.700
she's doing really good with her milk replacer.

00:14:38.800 --> 00:14:39.800
She's got some good energy.

00:14:42.300 --> 00:14:44.300
So fast you're so fast.

00:14:45.300 --> 00:14:46.100
Come here.

00:14:46.800 --> 00:14:47.500
Come here.

00:14:51.400 --> 00:14:53.700
You can see she sucks on my arm when I pick her up.

00:14:58.700 --> 00:15:01.500
So I'm mixing up a pint and that'll last

00:15:01.500 --> 00:15:02.500
a few days.

00:15:04.800 --> 00:15:05.100
doesn't

00:15:06.900 --> 00:15:09.500
really need that much with how little she is.

00:15:12.700 --> 00:15:16.700
goat's milk replacer is also really good for piglets, but

00:15:15.700 --> 00:15:19.500
that's gonna be quite a bit more expensive and

00:15:23.500 --> 00:15:24.600
This is just easier.

00:15:26.500 --> 00:15:29.100
Because we know it's fully balanced nutrition.

00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:32.500
But that's that's about as much as she needs right now. So.

00:15:33.800 --> 00:15:36.500
I'm just gonna put this pan in the pen with

00:15:36.500 --> 00:15:36.700
her.

00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:46.100
Come here. I need to focus.

00:15:48.100 --> 00:15:48.100
Yes.

00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:02.100
But you can see she's a good little eater.

00:16:43.400 --> 00:16:43.700
here

00:17:11.800 --> 00:17:12.700
here everybody for breakfast

00:17:14.600 --> 00:17:17.100
You want to come meet the other girls before I feed them?

00:17:21.300 --> 00:17:24.400
Florence is more

00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:24.800
timid.

00:17:28.600 --> 00:17:29.500
roof, eyebrow

00:17:31.300 --> 00:17:34.300
Ser they're feeling pretty good they're getting used

00:17:34.300 --> 00:17:34.500
to me

00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:40.400
they haven't been totally thrilled

00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.200
with me because I had to give them shots and

00:17:43.300 --> 00:17:46.300
Ruth has to take pain meds every day because of her back

00:17:46.300 --> 00:17:46.400
foot.

00:17:47.500 --> 00:17:50.700
But they're coming around. They're thinking

00:17:50.700 --> 00:17:51.300
I'm okay now.

00:18:01.300 --> 00:18:04.600
I do I soak their pellets to make it into like a mush for

00:18:04.600 --> 00:18:06.200
them to make it easier for them to eat.

00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:10.700
There's always a risk of them choking on dry pellets.

00:18:10.700 --> 00:18:12.300
That's how they get a little bit older.

00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:25.000
I got here. No, don't

00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:25.400
tell.

00:18:44.800 --> 00:18:48.700
And this is meloxicam for Ruth. We're

00:18:47.700 --> 00:18:50.100
finally at a point where she'll suck on

00:18:50.100 --> 00:18:51.400
the syringe, which is awesome.

00:18:52.600 --> 00:18:55.600
Maybe just you want to

00:18:55.600 --> 00:18:57.900
make oh good girl. Oh, definitely.

00:19:04.700 --> 00:19:06.000
All right hungry.

00:19:07.300 --> 00:19:07.600
Excuse me.

00:19:09.300 --> 00:19:11.400
Excuse me. Come on, let's go.

00:19:17.700 --> 00:19:17.900
Oh.

00:19:20.700 --> 00:19:23.600
The conditions he lived in in Indiana were just

00:19:23.600 --> 00:19:26.700
like thick chesty mud. No clean

00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:29.000
water. No dry ground. No shelter.

00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.900
We took in nine of them from Indiana.

00:19:33.900 --> 00:19:36.200
We adopted two out. So we still

00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:39.500
have seven of them. So granny and Mufasa are Indy

00:19:39.500 --> 00:19:42.200
pigs and they moved up here because of

00:19:42.200 --> 00:19:45.200
Mufasa's skin condition. We've had him

00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:48.600
on I think four rounds

00:19:48.600 --> 00:19:51.200
of antibiotics now to clear it up and he

00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:53.200
has to get medicated baths periodically.

00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:57.100
So to just make that easier on me, we put them

00:19:57.100 --> 00:20:00.200
in the basement and Granny got really sad when he

00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:01.900
moved out of the bed. So Brandi got to come up.

00:20:02.800 --> 00:20:04.800
And then the rest are down the hill.

00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:09.900
there were five of us rescued working on it and

00:20:11.700 --> 00:20:14.600
pigs came to Colorado. They went to Missouri. They

00:20:14.600 --> 00:20:18.200
went to Indiana. Of course. They stayed there and Tennessee.

00:20:29.300 --> 00:20:29.800
Maybe

00:20:31.600 --> 00:20:32.400
let me back.

00:20:40.700 --> 00:20:41.600
I'll be back.

00:20:44.400 --> 00:20:47.800
Hey Aaron here from hog Haven Farm. We have

00:20:47.800 --> 00:20:50.700
made it to the site where the pigs are. We're currently

00:20:50.700 --> 00:20:54.100
trying to get a headcount and identify genders

00:20:53.100 --> 00:20:56.200
for each pen. As you

00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:59.500
can. See the conditions are not. Okay. This is

00:20:59.500 --> 00:21:03.100
one of the more worse off pens. These

00:21:02.100 --> 00:21:05.400
guys have very deep

00:21:05.400 --> 00:21:06.800
mud that they're getting around in.

00:21:07.700 --> 00:21:11.000
And there's no fresh water. We're

00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:12.800
working on getting fresh water to everybody right now.

00:21:13.700 --> 00:21:16.600
That's crucial. It's you know about 80 degrees.

00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:19.000
Probably 100% humidity.

00:21:20.100 --> 00:21:23.200
I'm gonna have Susan put the camera

00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:26.100
in here and I will give

00:21:26.100 --> 00:21:29.500
you a disclaimer. This isn't for the faint of heart. This is really

00:21:29.500 --> 00:21:30.100
upsetting.

00:21:31.700 --> 00:21:33.700
She's got some kind of respiratory thing going on.

00:21:49.900 --> 00:21:52.300
Hello, Indiana Pig Rescue fans. This

00:21:52.300 --> 00:21:55.300
is Andrew from hog Haven Farm Aaron and

00:21:55.300 --> 00:21:58.700
Katie just arrived with eight of the Indy Pig Rescue pigs

00:21:58.700 --> 00:22:01.400
here in Colorado at hog Haven farm, and we

00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:04.400
are about to let them loose into their new

00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:05.600
quarter acre pasture.

00:22:06.300 --> 00:22:07.900
Katie you want to do the honors?

00:22:18.900 --> 00:22:21.200
Oh, here we go. Here we go.

00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:23.200
You guys want some water?

00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:50.100
So Greta gets Gabapentin for her leg mobility

00:22:49.100 --> 00:22:50.400
issue.

00:22:51.300 --> 00:22:54.300
And the easiest way for me to give her Gabapentin is just stuff it in

00:22:54.300 --> 00:22:54.700
a fake Newton.

00:22:56.300 --> 00:22:57.300
Give her her fake Newton real quick.

00:23:31.300 --> 00:23:34.300
Someone gone so I

00:23:34.300 --> 00:23:37.300
always get him going first and then I come up

00:23:37.300 --> 00:23:41.000
and grab. Hey for the goats.

00:23:40.600 --> 00:23:43.700
So I'm

00:23:43.700 --> 00:23:45.400
gonna go running around the hay real quick.

00:24:10.300 --> 00:24:10.700
here

00:24:27.700 --> 00:24:31.400
I'm more

00:24:31.400 --> 00:24:33.900
of the mindset. Let's plan a seed. I'm gonna live by example.

00:24:34.900 --> 00:24:37.300
I don't want to get on my soapbox and tell

00:24:37.300 --> 00:24:38.500
you how you should live your life.

00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:40.200
And for the people that

00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:44.400
make a connection and recognize that yeah factory farming

00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:47.700
is a really terrible thing and we're destroying our

00:24:47.700 --> 00:24:51.200
planet because of animal agriculture. How can

00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:54.100
I make a difference like just one step at a time? If you

00:24:54.100 --> 00:24:58.400
give up meet one meal a day or if you stop eating

00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:01.900
dairy or just start trying these alternative

00:25:01.900 --> 00:25:04.400
products that are out there. Every little

00:25:04.400 --> 00:25:06.000
bit makes a difference and

00:25:07.100 --> 00:25:10.400
I do want to see a compassionate future.

00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:13.400
Like I do think plant-based living is becoming a bigger and

00:25:13.400 --> 00:25:13.400
bigger.

00:25:14.300 --> 00:25:17.200
Thing and I think we're getting there slowly but surely.

00:25:21.900 --> 00:25:22.600
on to the next

00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:50.600
And you can see I've always got a little Biggers.

00:25:52.100 --> 00:25:53.100
Trying to help me out.

00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:06.500
Steve

00:26:22.300 --> 00:26:22.500
it

00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:43.500
we would stack a full palette in here. So it would be stacked to like

00:26:43.500 --> 00:26:46.300
this tall. And by the time I get to the bottom, there's

00:26:46.300 --> 00:26:49.200
two or three bags that are ruined because of mice.

00:26:50.300 --> 00:26:51.000
So we stopped.

00:26:52.600 --> 00:26:55.200
Storing the feed down here and we keep it up

00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:56.700
in the garage by The Farmhouse now.

00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:01.400
And it'll be really nice. Once we have a barn with like an

00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:04.400
actual room that's sealed up to keep

00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:08.700
mice out as long-term goal is interesting

00:27:08.700 --> 00:27:11.100
though. We've had times in the summer. We're snakes have been

00:27:11.100 --> 00:27:14.200
up here in the rafters and they'll like hang down to get

00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:14.600
the mice.

00:27:15.800 --> 00:27:17.300
Yeah, I've pictures of that.

00:27:18.500 --> 00:27:21.200
That always freaks me out like you don't expect to have

00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:22.400
a snake like right here, you know.

00:27:27.600 --> 00:27:30.700
it

00:27:36.300 --> 00:27:39.500
so our food cost is

00:27:39.500 --> 00:27:43.200
I think that's our highest cost out of everything. Yeah.

00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:45.200
What are we at right now? Like two thousand

00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:46.500
dollars a month a little over that

00:27:47.300 --> 00:27:50.200
probably a little over that we go through two tons of feet

00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:50.700
a month.

00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:53.900
literal tons literal tons

00:27:55.600 --> 00:28:00.100
You have

00:27:59.100 --> 00:28:02.900
heard for years and years that pigs are

00:28:02.900 --> 00:28:05.400
dirty animals and that their environment

00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:08.800
is disgusting and that's they're never

00:28:08.800 --> 00:28:08.800
good.

00:28:09.900 --> 00:28:12.500
for pets or they're not sentient beings

00:28:12.500 --> 00:28:14.300
and it's all myth because

00:28:16.300 --> 00:28:20.100
we don't want people to know the truth. We don't want them to know how cuddly

00:28:19.100 --> 00:28:22.600
pigs are and that they love their tummy

00:28:22.600 --> 00:28:23.100
scratched.

00:28:23.700 --> 00:28:26.900
That they wag their tails when they're happy, like people don't

00:28:26.900 --> 00:28:28.300
want to hear that about what they're about to eat.

00:28:45.100 --> 00:28:46.500
Where'd you guys come from?

00:28:48.500 --> 00:28:51.100
Portland drove to Molino, Oregon picked him

00:28:51.100 --> 00:28:53.000
up from like a hoarding case last year.

00:28:54.200 --> 00:28:58.000
Let's come home guys. They look like Cooney mixes. Do

00:28:57.300 --> 00:29:00.300
you think so I do? Well that's very possible

00:29:00.300 --> 00:29:09.900
actually their faces after her

00:29:09.900 --> 00:29:10.600
first trip here.

00:29:22.300 --> 00:29:26.300
I totally

00:29:25.300 --> 00:29:28.300
got 200. Okay. It's 200.

00:29:34.800 --> 00:29:35.000
Hey.

00:29:44.600 --> 00:29:48.100
They're named after Andrew my grandma. So we're

00:29:47.100 --> 00:29:48.900
good after my grandma.

00:29:50.700 --> 00:29:53.100
Oh my God, they were so sweet. Now. I

00:29:53.100 --> 00:29:56.900
can't remember where you get them at. Oh, they were where their

00:29:56.900 --> 00:29:57.300
fourth home.

00:29:59.600 --> 00:30:02.300
Okay, they were purchased as a Father's Day present and

00:30:02.300 --> 00:30:03.600
not well received.

00:30:04.900 --> 00:30:07.500
So a lady took them into foster them while the

00:30:07.500 --> 00:30:10.800
lady that bought them looked for a home for them and they

00:30:10.800 --> 00:30:13.400
were attacked by a raccoon. Okay, so that's

00:30:13.400 --> 00:30:16.600
how they came to us and they're on rabies quarantine

00:30:16.600 --> 00:30:16.900
right now.

00:30:17.700 --> 00:30:19.500
Which lives tomorrow? Yeah, so

00:30:21.100 --> 00:30:24.200
which is excellent because I can't wait

00:30:24.200 --> 00:30:28.000
to put them with Prim so they can only buddies. Oh, yeah.

00:30:29.300 --> 00:30:30.000
Get it.

00:30:31.300 --> 00:30:32.200
We're gonna make mud.

00:31:13.200 --> 00:31:14.000
Oh, yeah.

00:31:32.800 --> 00:31:36.300
I think for me the goal is to normalize pigs

00:31:35.300 --> 00:31:39.000
as pets I mean cats are

00:31:38.100 --> 00:31:41.400
pretty normal pet dogs are pretty normal pet. And

00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:44.700
I'd like to see a world where pigs are

00:31:44.700 --> 00:31:46.800
that? They're great domestic pet.

00:31:56.300 --> 00:31:59.800
Good morning morning. How are

00:31:59.800 --> 00:32:02.200
you? Good. Are you

00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:05.400
Samantha? Yes. Do you want me to drive around?

00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:08.200
Yeah. Okay. I'm like, how do

00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:12.100
I know? I'm in the right spot. I guess the 50 million pigs would be a good indication one

00:32:11.100 --> 00:32:12.400
time.

00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:17.800
A lot of times nice to meet you. Oh, I'm

00:32:16.800 --> 00:32:20.700
hanging in there. How are you good. Those

00:32:19.700 --> 00:32:21.800
are beautiful. Thank you.

00:32:22.900 --> 00:32:25.100
Over oh my God up for

00:32:25.100 --> 00:32:28.400
the week. You've had thank you. That's so

00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:30.300
good. Hi you

00:32:31.100 --> 00:32:35.000
I'm on five acres with 16 rescue

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:35.300
animals.

00:32:36.100 --> 00:32:39.400
I have a quarter horse a donkey three mini

00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:42.600
horses too, many pigs and ducks.

00:32:44.400 --> 00:32:46.700
And a human child and a husband.

00:32:47.600 --> 00:32:51.400
So your girls are like 160-ish

00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:53.400
pound range. They're about the

00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:56.200
size of that one walking away. That's hippie. She's gonna start all

00:32:56.200 --> 00:33:00.400
this ton of

00:33:00.400 --> 00:33:02.000
weight. He lost over 100 pounds.

00:33:03.700 --> 00:33:04.900
How much food you still got?

00:33:05.800 --> 00:33:08.800
Come here. So you can see he's got like all this

00:33:08.800 --> 00:33:09.500
extra skin.

00:33:10.300 --> 00:33:13.700
Because he lost so much weight, but he's healthy now. Good weight.

00:33:13.700 --> 00:33:15.500
He's probably 120 pounds.

00:33:16.300 --> 00:33:19.300
It's just tall he's tall and long. Yeah, I was

00:33:19.300 --> 00:33:19.600
gonna say.

00:33:21.500 --> 00:33:22.300
And he's a lover.

00:33:23.600 --> 00:33:24.800
Even though he's distracted.

00:33:26.100 --> 00:33:26.300
Peter

00:33:28.900 --> 00:33:31.600
It's been let's see. We've had him for three

00:33:31.600 --> 00:33:32.200
years now.

00:33:33.300 --> 00:33:36.400
And he was in The Farmhouse when

00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:40.100
we lived in here for a bit. He can do stairs, but

00:33:39.100 --> 00:33:42.100
he never had Pontiacs in the

00:33:42.100 --> 00:33:44.200
house. So I don't imagine that being a problem.

00:33:48.500 --> 00:33:48.700
it

00:33:50.900 --> 00:33:53.500
Peter's still looking

00:33:53.500 --> 00:33:53.900
for food

00:33:57.400 --> 00:33:57.800
Peter

00:34:00.100 --> 00:34:04.400
But it feels so nice. Oscar is

00:34:04.400 --> 00:34:07.900
up here. We have two Oscars

00:34:07.900 --> 00:34:10.900
black and white ring. He's gray

00:34:10.900 --> 00:34:11.500
and black. Yeah.

00:34:12.900 --> 00:34:13.600
Oscar

00:34:15.100 --> 00:34:16.800
we're Peter Peter bunny.

00:34:17.500 --> 00:34:20.600
Hmm you think about having two

00:34:20.600 --> 00:34:20.900
girlfriends?

00:34:21.800 --> 00:34:22.300
Huh?

00:34:22.900 --> 00:34:23.900
Like you talking to me.

00:34:25.300 --> 00:34:28.600
Yeah, now that there's no food around Peters like okay, I can be social. Yeah,

00:34:28.600 --> 00:34:30.300
I can show my true colors.

00:34:31.100 --> 00:34:34.600
My other Oscar hello.

00:34:37.900 --> 00:34:40.300
The more I think about it, this Oscar probably needs

00:34:40.300 --> 00:34:42.000
to go to a single Pig household.

00:34:43.700 --> 00:34:46.000
Come here Oscar. Come show her your tricks.

00:34:47.100 --> 00:34:47.800
He's been.

00:34:48.700 --> 00:34:52.400
You take Shake.

00:34:51.400 --> 00:34:54.800
Hey Shake good boy

00:34:54.800 --> 00:34:55.700
Oscar down.

00:34:56.500 --> 00:34:57.100
Oscar down

00:34:57.900 --> 00:35:00.200
he'll bend down on his front knees to your life

00:35:00.200 --> 00:35:00.300
God.

00:35:01.100 --> 00:35:03.900
Any sense? Yeah, you're in the way showing off.

00:35:14.300 --> 00:35:17.100
I can get him vetted next week. He's up to date

00:35:17.100 --> 00:35:20.800
on vaccinations. I'll have

00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:23.300
to look on when those were done because he might be due

00:35:23.300 --> 00:35:23.900
on dewormer.

00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:27.600
I have different pens on different schedules. So I'll

00:35:27.600 --> 00:35:31.500
have to look and see when he was too warmed. But I also do rhinoshield which

00:35:31.500 --> 00:35:35.000
is respiratory vaccination. Okay and Pharaoh sure,

00:35:34.300 --> 00:35:35.600
which is

00:35:37.700 --> 00:35:39.400
iriceyphilis lepto

00:35:43.300 --> 00:35:46.400
And then all it'll have the adoption

00:35:46.400 --> 00:35:49.300
contract we'll have all of his vaccination records in it. Okay, because

00:35:49.300 --> 00:35:54.600
I do that myself I won't have proof from a vet. But I

00:35:53.600 --> 00:35:56.200
promise I do vaccinate.

00:35:57.400 --> 00:35:59.500
He's seen it lots of times.

00:36:01.400 --> 00:36:04.600
And then we'll do the Tusk trim and

00:36:04.600 --> 00:36:07.200
get them updated on dewormer. So.

00:36:08.100 --> 00:36:08.900
Yeah good to go.

00:36:09.600 --> 00:36:13.000
I finally got to meet like one. It's only

00:36:12.200 --> 00:36:16.200
been like seven years and thanks for good flowers.

00:36:15.200 --> 00:36:18.200
Tell me

00:36:18.200 --> 00:36:19.100
how you like. Oh well.

00:36:24.500 --> 00:36:26.100
Peter Peter Peter

00:36:29.600 --> 00:36:30.300
Remember, let's go.

00:36:36.800 --> 00:36:39.500
Peter Peter, hey, Peter

00:37:20.600 --> 00:37:24.600
here

00:37:31.300 --> 00:37:34.200
I don't

00:37:34.200 --> 00:37:35.900
think Peters ever been made before.

00:37:51.200 --> 00:38:01.200
You guys are gonna be house pigs twinkle. I'm

00:37:59.200 --> 00:38:11.400
amazing lady. That's gotta

00:38:10.400 --> 00:38:12.200
feel good. It's hot.

00:38:36.700 --> 00:38:40.000
It's time to hang out and dry out. Hey, we'll

00:38:39.100 --> 00:38:40.400
bring you some water.

00:39:02.500 --> 00:39:06.500
Transporting pigs transporting horses vaccinating horses.

00:39:06.500 --> 00:39:09.400
We've had pigs Spade in

00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:12.100
here before. We've had

00:39:12.100 --> 00:39:16.400
hoof and Tusk trim sedation done in here before now baths.

00:39:17.600 --> 00:39:19.000
It's a it was a good investment.

00:39:23.700 --> 00:39:23.800
Hi.

00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:31.900
Little do you get your test room? Yeah, you

00:39:31.900 --> 00:39:33.800
look really cute. Hi.

00:39:35.300 --> 00:39:37.600
Hi ready to get out of here. Oh.

00:39:41.100 --> 00:39:41.800
Coming out yet.

00:39:42.200 --> 00:39:44.300
Not yet. Not yet Peter Peter.

00:39:45.300 --> 00:39:46.800
Oh, yeah, Peter Peter. Oh.

00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:01.400
Hey Coopers.

00:40:09.500 --> 00:40:13.200
So oh

00:40:12.200 --> 00:40:15.300
Oscar's ready to go

00:40:15.300 --> 00:40:18.300
boy. Come on Peter. Come on Peter. You can

00:40:18.300 --> 00:40:21.300
go ahead and close that door up to the ramp. There we

00:40:21.300 --> 00:40:24.600
go. Come on, buddy. I know

00:40:24.600 --> 00:40:27.600
no no

00:40:27.600 --> 00:40:28.200
no.

00:40:30.500 --> 00:40:34.600
Here we go. Hi, see

00:40:34.600 --> 00:40:35.800
good boy.

00:40:38.500 --> 00:40:41.600
That's the easiest Pig loading ever before.

00:40:45.800 --> 00:40:47.300
All right, you ready smile for the picture?

00:40:50.700 --> 00:40:53.100
Oscar cannot see your face. Hey, dude.

00:40:55.100 --> 00:40:58.200
All right, cool. Well, hit me up when you get home.

00:40:58.200 --> 00:41:01.500
Let me know that you made it I will in there and in a

00:41:01.500 --> 00:41:05.400
separate yard from the girls. So for as long as they need to be perfect, I'd

00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:07.300
say give it a month. Did you say one

00:41:07.300 --> 00:41:10.700
of them was house trained? They both are well, they are. Yeah. Okay, so

00:41:10.700 --> 00:41:11.800
that's not gonna be an issue.

00:41:12.500 --> 00:41:15.100
I get freaked out Peter's gonna be so happy to be back in the

00:41:15.100 --> 00:41:15.200
house.

00:41:15.800 --> 00:41:18.600
Okay guys to try and break in the house. So okay. He's

00:41:18.600 --> 00:41:21.300
gonna be stoked so and Oscars a good

00:41:21.300 --> 00:41:21.400
boy.

00:41:32.500 --> 00:41:35.800
Well, and I mean we do believe that the pigs pick people. I'm

00:41:35.800 --> 00:41:38.200
I totally stand by that and I was obvious with

00:41:38.200 --> 00:41:38.900
Oscar.

00:41:39.700 --> 00:41:42.400
And Peter liked her too. So I'm glad she

00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:45.300
was willing to take both of them because they are

00:41:45.300 --> 00:41:47.700
Buds and they do both like her.

00:41:48.600 --> 00:41:49.700
Or they're gonna do great.

00:41:55.500 --> 00:41:58.900
Virgie was found wandering in the desert self

00:41:58.900 --> 00:42:01.900
like southeast of Grand Junction. There's nothing

00:42:01.900 --> 00:42:03.400
out there. I mean, it's

00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:08.100
Flat and hot and desert had

00:42:07.100 --> 00:42:10.900
her ears removed prior to being

00:42:10.900 --> 00:42:13.300
turned out and it's obvious

00:42:13.300 --> 00:42:16.400
looking at her that she's just gone through

00:42:16.400 --> 00:42:20.400
serious neglect between breeding and improper

00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:22.900
diet her ears being gone, and she's

00:42:22.900 --> 00:42:24.500
the most forgiving Pig I've ever met.

00:42:25.400 --> 00:42:27.200
She could be pregnant. We'll find out next week.

00:42:30.200 --> 00:42:33.500
So our long-term goal with Prim Florence and Ruth

00:42:33.500 --> 00:42:35.600
is to move them in with Berkey.

00:42:36.300 --> 00:42:40.100
Since she's clearly had a lot of babies just

00:42:39.100 --> 00:42:42.800
given her physical body structure

00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:45.400
and never been able to live with any

00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:48.500
of her babies. We think that the piglets will

00:42:48.500 --> 00:42:51.200
be a really good fit for her. So we think

00:42:51.200 --> 00:42:54.400
she'll be a good mom figure and that they'll

00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:57.700
appreciate learning how to be proper Piggies from a

00:42:57.700 --> 00:42:59.700
pig like birdy who's super super sweet.

00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:03.200
And they're all kind of uninterested in each other at the

00:43:03.200 --> 00:43:06.400
moment, but I know it'll change more than around

00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:06.700
each other.

00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:23.600
heresy

00:43:32.200 --> 00:43:35.200
Repeat look at

00:43:35.200 --> 00:43:35.500
his little baby.

00:43:38.700 --> 00:43:40.400
We've had four letters born here.

00:43:41.300 --> 00:43:44.600
And of the four one of The Mamas

00:43:44.600 --> 00:43:45.000
passed away.

00:43:46.200 --> 00:43:49.300
Two of The Mamas still live here, and they still live with their babies.

00:43:50.300 --> 00:43:53.800
And one Mama we adopted out with one of our babies and

00:43:53.800 --> 00:43:56.400
they form incredible bonds with their

00:43:56.400 --> 00:43:59.200
kids. I really do think pigs are one

00:43:59.200 --> 00:43:59.400
of the

00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:03.200
most caring mothers out there, so

00:44:05.300 --> 00:44:08.100
That's kind of our goal with integrating. The piglets is

00:44:08.100 --> 00:44:12.200
for her to really be able to be a mom and have

00:44:11.200 --> 00:44:13.000
that Bond.

00:44:16.300 --> 00:44:18.400
But I just wonder what's going through her head about it.

00:44:22.900 --> 00:44:23.600
You don't even care.

00:44:27.300 --> 00:44:27.900
Oh, no you care.

00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:29.400
What?

00:44:40.400 --> 00:44:43.700
So they're

00:44:43.700 --> 00:44:47.200
all about 11 weeks at this point. We think

00:44:46.200 --> 00:44:49.400
Florence and Ruth are actually about

00:44:49.400 --> 00:44:50.900
the same age as primrose.

00:44:51.700 --> 00:44:53.500
when they were sold

00:44:54.600 --> 00:44:57.500
the woman that bought them were told that they were older but based

00:44:57.500 --> 00:45:00.300
on their size and how they're growing and how their teeth are

00:45:00.300 --> 00:45:00.500
looking.

00:45:01.700 --> 00:45:03.400
We think they're the same age. So.

00:45:05.500 --> 00:45:06.300
11 week old little baby

00:45:18.100 --> 00:45:21.000
So when she was breathing at me

00:45:21.300 --> 00:45:24.500
a little bit ago that's called hot pants and that's

00:45:24.500 --> 00:45:27.500
how pigs tell other pigs or humans

00:45:27.500 --> 00:45:28.200
that they love them.

00:45:29.500 --> 00:45:31.700
So it's a real like breathy noise.

00:45:41.300 --> 00:45:42.100
Be your babies.

00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:15.800
you

00:46:20.800 --> 00:46:20.900
are

00:46:28.400 --> 00:46:31.900
last I talked to the barn builders 40

00:46:31.900 --> 00:46:33.500
by 80 plan was something like

00:46:35.500 --> 00:46:37.800
45,000 with concrete

00:46:39.500 --> 00:46:42.500
or 45,000 with insulation and then

00:46:42.500 --> 00:46:45.600
another 18,000 in concrete and we've got

00:46:45.600 --> 00:46:48.400
about 35,000 in the bank right now and we're

00:46:48.400 --> 00:46:53.500
trying to figure out how to work better with that given the

00:46:53.500 --> 00:46:56.000
way the fundraising climate has been lately.

00:46:58.600 --> 00:47:01.300
It'll be 40 wide this way. It'll be

00:47:01.300 --> 00:47:04.100
80 long this way kind of to that little

00:47:04.100 --> 00:47:07.400
drop off water inside set

00:47:07.400 --> 00:47:11.300
up a pump system. So we have good water pressure some alternative.

00:47:13.300 --> 00:47:16.200
wood stove heaters that are super

00:47:16.200 --> 00:47:19.400
safe and super efficient to kind of keep things above

00:47:19.400 --> 00:47:21.300
freezing in the winter time and

00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:26.000
then all the pins will fan out kind of

00:47:26.300 --> 00:47:29.000
like this from each side. So there'll be

00:47:29.700 --> 00:47:30.400
eight stalls.

00:47:31.100 --> 00:47:34.300
10 feet wide inside on each side of the barn the north

00:47:34.300 --> 00:47:35.200
side and the south side

00:47:36.700 --> 00:47:40.000
As far as time frame it is now the very

00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:41.600
first part of September.

00:47:42.700 --> 00:47:45.300
And I would like it done

00:47:45.300 --> 00:47:48.800
say by the end of October because that's that's

00:47:48.800 --> 00:47:51.800
when it's the weather's really going to start affecting things.

00:47:52.900 --> 00:47:59.800
The babies

00:47:59.800 --> 00:48:03.600
are three months old now and they've

00:48:03.600 --> 00:48:06.200
been living in here permanently for probably three weeks

00:48:06.200 --> 00:48:12.000
with bergy. I'm thinking

00:48:11.300 --> 00:48:16.100
that we'll probably keep all four of these guys before

00:48:14.100 --> 00:48:16.600
I was

00:48:17.800 --> 00:48:20.300
certain that we would keep Primrose and certain that

00:48:20.300 --> 00:48:23.600
we keep birdy, but she's such a good mom to

00:48:23.600 --> 00:48:24.700
all of these babies that

00:48:26.100 --> 00:48:29.000
I don't want to separate them. They're a good little family.

00:48:38.700 --> 00:48:41.500
We we do keep hogging

00:48:41.500 --> 00:48:44.200
for them a vegan Sanctuary. I don't really like

00:48:44.200 --> 00:48:48.100
the word veganism at this point because there's so

00:48:47.100 --> 00:48:51.500
many negative connotations. I do

00:48:51.500 --> 00:48:52.700
like the word plant-based.

00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:56.700
But we don't lecture any visitors

00:48:56.700 --> 00:48:59.400
about it. We want people to come out and meet the pigs

00:48:59.400 --> 00:49:02.200
see their personalities and start to think about

00:49:02.200 --> 00:49:05.900
it. Like oh this is where my bacon comes from. Do

00:49:05.900 --> 00:49:08.300
I really want to be eating bacon and we've had

00:49:08.300 --> 00:49:11.800
a lot of visitors that make comments before they leave saying I

00:49:11.800 --> 00:49:15.300
don't want to eat bacon anymore and that's mission

00:49:14.300 --> 00:49:18.400
accomplished at the end of the day because I can

00:49:18.400 --> 00:49:21.600
tell people tell them blue in the face, like stop eating

00:49:21.600 --> 00:49:24.700
pigs. They're amazing sentient beings

00:49:24.700 --> 00:49:27.500
just don't eat them. But until you actually interact

00:49:27.500 --> 00:49:30.700
with the pig and actually see their personalities

00:49:30.700 --> 00:49:34.300
and see how different each pigment Farm

00:49:34.300 --> 00:49:34.400
is

00:49:35.200 --> 00:49:36.500
You're not going to make that connection.

00:49:37.900 --> 00:49:39.600
for me, I think the changes came from

00:49:40.600 --> 00:49:42.400
just being around pigs more and

00:49:43.500 --> 00:49:46.500
by realizing just how

00:49:46.500 --> 00:49:49.700
amazing they are. Like no, I really don't want to

00:49:49.700 --> 00:49:51.300
eat my friends. I really don't.

00:50:01.400 --> 00:50:04.800
I'm Andrea Davis. I'm the director of broken shovels

00:50:04.800 --> 00:50:05.500
Farm Sanctuary.

00:50:06.800 --> 00:50:11.700
We are a home for slaughter-bound

00:50:09.700 --> 00:50:13.800
neglected abused

00:50:12.800 --> 00:50:14.500
farm animals.

00:50:15.500 --> 00:50:18.600
We have 23 species here over 400 animals.

00:50:19.700 --> 00:50:21.500
And I'm a former Dairy Farmer.

00:50:29.400 --> 00:50:32.200
Three years of fighting with the with County that I'm

00:50:32.200 --> 00:50:36.000
in we were unable to secure the proper permits

00:50:35.300 --> 00:50:38.300
to keep it. It should have been permitted before

00:50:38.300 --> 00:50:42.300
it was built but I was scammed by the Builder and was told this

00:50:41.300 --> 00:50:44.200
particular type of building didn't require

00:50:44.200 --> 00:50:47.400
permit, which it absolutely did and I didn't find out until after

00:50:47.400 --> 00:50:49.700
they were finished and paid.

00:50:50.900 --> 00:50:53.300
You know seeing this seeing this

00:50:53.300 --> 00:50:56.800
come down, we built it three years ago just

00:50:56.800 --> 00:51:00.300
on the heels of closing our our Dairy

00:50:59.300 --> 00:51:04.400
and becoming a sanctuary and so

00:51:03.400 --> 00:51:06.800
it was it it meant a

00:51:06.800 --> 00:51:08.200
lot Gracie.

00:51:10.600 --> 00:51:13.500
It really meant a lot to us to be able

00:51:13.500 --> 00:51:14.400
to have that Barn.

00:51:15.900 --> 00:51:17.500
so it's bittersweet but

00:51:18.800 --> 00:51:22.200
the fortunate part is that hog, Haven

00:51:21.200 --> 00:51:24.500
and Aaron and Andrew can use this

00:51:24.500 --> 00:51:27.500
barn now and repurpose it

00:51:27.500 --> 00:51:31.300
for pigs make someone else safe. So

00:51:30.300 --> 00:51:31.700
it's

00:51:32.500 --> 00:51:35.800
It's exciting to me that if it had to come down it's

00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:39.600
it's gonna go on to have this new life and Serve

00:51:38.600 --> 00:51:41.700
and Protect other rescued animals

00:51:41.700 --> 00:51:42.200
that need it.

00:52:05.400 --> 00:52:07.800
so Andrew

00:52:09.200 --> 00:52:12.200
still pumped are you yeah.

00:52:15.200 --> 00:52:15.600
Put up.

00:52:16.100 --> 00:52:19.200
Yeah, but this is pretty exciting. Yeah, that works.

00:52:20.200 --> 00:52:20.600
Let's do it.

00:52:45.500 --> 00:52:45.500
here

00:53:13.500 --> 00:53:14.300
when you realize

00:53:16.100 --> 00:53:19.300
how awesome these guys are in so many

00:53:19.300 --> 00:53:19.700
different ways.

00:53:21.200 --> 00:53:22.900
It's absolutely life-changing.

00:53:23.900 --> 00:53:25.600
And there's no going back after that.

00:53:38.400 --> 00:53:42.100
Oh, hey

00:53:41.100 --> 00:53:44.000
everybody. It's Andrew from hog Haven Farm.

00:53:45.200 --> 00:53:45.800
but

00:54:33.400 --> 00:54:33.900
you

00:54:48.200 --> 00:54:50.300
never

00:54:51.400 --> 00:54:54.600
saw this never saw myself being

00:54:54.600 --> 00:54:58.100
in the rescue world for one, but seeing

00:54:57.100 --> 00:55:00.800
it take off so fast and expand

00:55:00.800 --> 00:55:03.300
so fast and be successful like we're

00:55:03.300 --> 00:55:04.100
doing something right?

00:55:11.900 --> 00:55:14.000
you

00:55:15.700 --> 00:55:22.200
You do. Well,

00:55:20.200 --> 00:55:24.500
don't be

00:55:23.500 --> 00:55:27.600
afraid. You can talk

00:55:27.600 --> 00:55:28.700
too much about Jesus.

00:55:37.500 --> 00:55:40.500
I'm moving don't be afraid of

00:55:40.500 --> 00:55:41.300
love.

00:55:41.500 --> 00:55:46.400

don't be afraid of love.
