When you first joined us Enki, you quickly let us know you were the boss of farm. I can't even recall how many times you chased Connor and I and oh how you hated the lawn mower. But over time, you showed us you really were not a "bad" rooster, just opinionated.

Your passing hurt and surprised us but I am so happy that we got time together where we saw and enjoyed the bestest boy that you were.

We will miss you Enki. 🌈

Jésus. That day you showed up on our back deck lost and scared I never imagined you’d become such an important part of the family. I am still in shock that your gone. 6 years of your cooing and somewhat inappropriately timed laughs and now silence from your cage. I’ll miss you my perfect Christmas star. Fly free Jésus. 💔

Love it when these cuties join me while I’m working out back.

Today I am doing something I am not fond of...asking for help.
An update on the sanctuary to start. Myself and my son Connor have taken over full responsibilities for our 7 rescued roosters and 1 muscovy duck, which includes the financial responsibilities. We are still at the same property as we have not had much luck selling as of yet. Of course, with any marriage breakdown there comes financial issues but ensuring the health and welfare of our sanctuary animals also takes money and with the loss of that second household income but no decrease in financial responsibilities, we are struggling immensely.
I am asking for some Valentines day love and help with purchasing feed for the roosters and River as well as some shavings for the barn to help keep those feet warm on that concrete ground. Bags of feed are around $22 and shavings are $8.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and can be sent via e-transfer to [email protected] or via PayPal at https://paypal.me/BearRiverSanctuaryNS?country.x=CA&locale.x=en_US

Thanks to all of you for your ongoing support and love. Peace and love for all kinds❤

I am heartbroken to have to share this. On Christmas Eve my beloved Foggy passed away. Foggy came to us last October after being picked up by the SPCA wandering on his own. Foggy was the most gentle soul, and he absolutely loved coming into the house to spend time with his human flock. The last 2 weeks, Foggy has been spending most of his days in the house with Connor and myself, coming to the door every morning and staying until his bedtime. Foggy, you showed me how smart, loving and goofy roosters can be and I will miss you always. Fly free Foggy. ❤

Hello everyone. As one of the co-founders of Bear River Sanctuary I am sharing that due to a marriage breakdown between myself and Rob, we are forced to sell the farm/house were we were working to build our sanctuary. With that being said, I plan to move the sanctuary to the a new location that myself and my son, Connor are currently trying very hard to find. Unfortunately, this is becoming a difficult task due to the financial constraints. At this time, the plan is not to add additional rescues and I will be looking at my ability to continuing rescuing after we secure a home.
Please note that the well being of the current animals we care for is my main priority, and I am working hard to find somewhere that my boys can love as much as they love where they are now. Thank you all for your support and I will post updates as I have them.
Peace and love for all kinds ❤

We here at Bear River Sanctuary were devastated last night to hear of Esther the Wonder Pig's passing. Rob, Connor and I had the absolute pleasure to attend a volunteer work day at Happily Ever Farm Sanctuary prior to moving to Nova Scotia and were able to see Esther out and about near the house. To say she was larger than life is an understatement. The profound effect that Esther has had not just on us, and the reason why we wanted to start a sanctuary for farmed animals, will never be forgotten. We love you Esther and our thoughts are with Derek, Steve and all of the people who loved you so much. Fly free beautiful girl. ❤❤

Ronny loves the fresh raspberries from our bushes. I love his happy little rooster sounds.
