Fetch & Feathers Farm

08/17/2026

I apologize for being a little quiet lately. I’ve been incredibly busy working on the dog park, website, banners, business cards, flyers, and everything else needed to open my business.

I had hoped to open the dog park on August 1, but I simply wasn’t ready. I’ve moved the opening date to September 1 so I can take my time and do things properly without overwhelming myself.

I’m now in the final stages! I’ll be mounting the lights and security cameras, and I’ll have the dog agility equipment and toys ready. I’m still working on the grass and planning a covered observation area so you can stay dry while your dog plays during bad weather. Not every little detail will be finished by opening day, but I’ll continue making improvements as everything comes together.

I’ll also have a limited number of fresh, soy free chicken and quail eggs available. My birds are not fed soy products, and I’m very careful about what I feed my quail, chickens, and all my other birds. I won’t have duck eggs available at this time, and turkey eggs won’t be available until next laying season.

The egg portion of my website isn’t ready yet. It’s taking me a little longer to learn the ordering system, calendars, and everything else involved. I’m not going to stress myself or rush through it. I’m going to take my time and do it right. In the meantime, if you’re interested in fresh chicken or quail eggs, please send me a private message. Availability will depend on what my birds are laying.

Thank you for your patience and for following along on this journey. It’s a work in progress, but it’s coming together beautifully. I look forward to opening the gates and welcoming everyone on September 1! 🐾❤️

I like that addition. Here’s a concise version that incorporates it naturally:

This little reminder touched my heart. 🐝💛

Six decades on this planet, and I’m still learning so much. The more I learn about nature, the more I appreciate the beauty of creation and the incredible purpose of even the smallest creatures.

Next spring, I’ll be adding beehives to Fetch & Feathers Farm, and I can’t wait to welcome these amazing pollinators. Here’s to the bees and all they teach us. 🌼🐝

Sometimes it’s hard to put into words what a moment like this feels like.

For the past few years, I’ve been saving, planning, and praying for this day. Through some very hard times, I’ve kept working toward the vision of creating Fetch & Feathers Farm.

My 2½-acre property had become covered with years of debris—old pallet structures, fencing, wire, barbed wire, scrap, and overgrown pasture that looked like a forest.

Then Bell & Hammer Inc showed up with their dump truck, mini crawler, and hardworking three-person crew.

For nearly 2½ days they’ve been hauling, loading, and clearing nonstop. Their work ethic has been incredible, and every truckload they haul away brings me one step closer to the farm I’ve dreamed about for so long.

Thank you, Tray and the entire Bell & Hammer crew. You may see a cleanup project, but I see years of hard work, saving, and prayers finally coming together.

🎥 Watch the video—this is what hard work looks like.

Sometimes it’s hard to put into words what a moment like this feels like.

For the past several years, I’ve been saving every dollar I could to make this dream a reality. I’ve spent countless hours planning, praying, and working toward the vision I have for Fetch & Feathers Farm.

The journey hasn’t been easy. Through some very hard times, I’ve been by Bruce’s side, and together we’ve faced more than our share of challenges. Along the way, I was also injured myself. Even through it all, I never stopped believing this dream would one day become a reality.

My 2½-acre property had become covered with years of accumulated debris—old pallet structures, fencing, wire, barbed wire, scrap materials, and piles that seemed overwhelming. By spring, the pasture had grown so tall it looked like a forest.

Then Bell & Hammer Inc showed up with their dump truck, mini crawler, and a hardworking three-person crew.

For nearly 2½ days they’ve been hauling, loading, sorting, and clearing without slowing down. They’ve worked through the heat, the dust, the pollen, and the overgrown pasture with incredible determination. Watching them work has been inspiring.

Every load they haul away brings me one step closer to opening the farm I’ve envisioned for so long. This isn’t just a cleanup project—it’s years of hope, planning, saving, and praying finally coming together.

To Tray and the entire Bell & Hammer crew, thank you. I don’t think you realize what a blessing you’ve been. Your hard work is helping bring a dream to life, and I’ll never forget it.

If you’re looking for a company that shows up prepared, works hard, and truly brings their A-game, I highly recommend Bell & Hammer Inc.

🎥 Watch the video and you’ll see exactly what dedication and teamwork look like.

Farm life is never dull!

Today, Bell & Hammer Inc. was here cleaning up the property with their mini crawler and truck, so I had my emus safely penned while all the heavy equipment was working.

Well… Peck, my adventurous male emu, had other plans! Somehow he managed to get out, strolled over to greet everyone on the crew, then wandered off and found a cool, shady spot under a tree where he spent the afternoon just relaxing and watching all the action.

When the work was finished and the equipment was gone, Peck calmly got up and headed right back to his pen like it was all part of his plan.

Just another unforgettable day at Fetch & Feathers Farm! ❤️

🥚🦃 Day 1 – Narragansett Turkey Eggs Are In the Incubator! 🦃🥚

The first batch of Narragansett turkey eggs is officially in the incubator at Fetch & Feathers Farm!

These beautiful heritage turkey eggs are beginning their journey today, and if all goes well, we’ll be welcoming turkey poults in about 28 days. Narragansetts are known for their striking plumage, calm temperament, and excellent foraging ability, making them one of my favorite heritage breeds.

This hatch is being started in my trusty little incubator. It may not be fancy, but it has consistently delivered around a 95% hatch rate, proving that good equipment doesn’t have to be expensive to get great results.

Now the waiting begins! I’ll be sharing updates along the way, including candling photos, development checks, and hopefully lots of healthy poults at hatch time.

🐣 Day 1: Eggs Set
🥚 Heritage Breed: Narragansett Turkey
📅 Expected Hatch: Approximately 28 Days

Day 2 of hatch lockdown and these little quail are popping like popcorn over here. 🐣 I’m estimating close to 200 chicks hatched so far, but I won’t know the final survivor count until lockdown is officially over. So far it’s looking VERY promising and I’m beyond excited.

This crew is the future of Fetch & Feathers Farm — bringing more fresh quail eggs, quail balut, and educational hatching kits for classrooms, homeschoolers, and curious little farmers alike. 💛🥚

Tiny birds… BIG plans. 🌱
