Halloween 2026 in the books. Donkey the goat and Mabel the donkey did amazing with all the people - parents and kids alike. Candy for the kids, some adult trick or treating fun too, and we’re all tuckered out.

Thank you to all who came out to see us and we were so excited to see all the great costumes this year!

Happy Halloween, friends!

Hi friends! Reminder to stop by 2210 Brians Way to see Donkey the goat, dressed as a highland cow and if all goes well, you’ll also get to meet our newest resident, Miss Mabel!!

Oh, and for an extra TREAT - we also have an adult bowl so don’t walk past without grabbing yourself something, if you dare ☠️

See you tonight!!

Okay friends - a little background on our sweet Mabel.

Theee owners ago, she was apparently a part of a petting zoo. Next owner, I have no info. Owner where she came from got her to breed with her Jack, her Jack didn’t like her so they decided they had no use for her. We named her because she came nameless 😢.

Mabel is sweet, tolerant, friendly, affectionate and extremely gentle. According to her teeth, she is approximately 8-10 years old. She is in beautiful condition other than a fungus on her legs that we will continue treating.

She leads well, she is happy being tied, she has had her feet done and did a fabulous job and we are over the moon that she’s here.

Tonight, we let her out for a bit, supervised, with the goats. She paid them no mind, the goats were curious and wondering what kind of new and odd looking goat was here. The dogs came out (after she was penned up again) and they were curious, she didn’t care a bit.

We are hopeful she will do well here and will blend in nicely. Fingers crossed. If today is any indication, she’s gonna do great!!

Friends!!! We’ve been keeping a secret.

Welcome to the funny farm, Mabel, you will be loved and cherished, forever and ever.

EDIT: it has come to our attention that others have created Venmo accounts that look like ours but are spam/fraudulent. Please be sure to find the one that says “Aimee Darling” and then the username beneath it. If this needs to change again for these reasons I will keep you updated.

One of the things I hate most is asking for money. I know it’s tight for everyone but I try so hard not to ask until we really need it.

We really need it now. Badly.

We are low on funds and can’t even get a week of hay. It’s that bad. That doesn’t even count grain, chicken feed or vet care. We have lost several monthly donations and that has hurt us greatly. We can talk about that later but gosh, do we need monthly donors!!

Anyway, to the matter at hand. We need your help, in a big way, so we can feed everyone. I’m desperate at this point and am begging for help.

If you donate through Venmo or through PayPal on our website, we get the funds immediately. If you donate though the donate button here on this post, we receive the money in a month’s time. We need funds now if at all possible. We’re moving into the colder months now so our feed costs are increasing so we keep bellies full and healthy.

If you can help, even a tiny bit, we appreciate it so much. If you can’t donate, please share so the word gets out to family and friends in case they might be able to help. We have a wonderful village of supporters and I know we can do this!!

Monthly feed expenses (excluding vet care):

Hay: $1100
Grain: $220
Chicken feed: $300

Total: $1620 per month (minimum)

Please help if you can. Please.

We love you and appreciate you so much! Your love and support is what keeps us going. ❤️

Okay friends! We are handing out candy this year at Old McDarling's Farm Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc. and our newest ambassador goat, Donkey, is all ready for you this year pretending to be a highland cow! How’s that for confusing?! 🤣 You won’t be able to resist his cuteness so you should probably head on over and meet him, get some cuddles and he might even let you give him some treats.

Donkey loooooves all people, is super gentle with kids and would love to see you. So come on by!

Trust me 🤣
