The big secret is out: Ivy is officially a Toadling! 🐸✨
Ivy was dumped at a shelter by her previous owners, who had fed her to the point of being fat-blind. She was left there with two tortoises who ended up being adopted out without her, leaving her completely alone. While she’s been sharing space with Betty and our tortoises here, we had to wait until she regained her sight before we could safely introduce her to the other pigs.
Now she can see, the introductions are complete, and she is thriving while getting tons of exercise across three big yards!
Of course, moving in means establishing the roommate dynamic. The official herd hierarchy has been settled:
1️⃣ Ramona: Indisputably the boss.
2️⃣ Piccolo: Comfortably at number two.
3️⃣ Ivy: Holding her own at number three!
4️⃣ Toad: Bringing up the rear... mostly because he screams and runs away the second anyone challenges him! 😂
But the absolute best part of this new chapter? Betty the turkey has found her purpose again. Since losing Milton, she was lost—but now, she has declared herself the Ultimate Protector of the yard. She keeps a fierce, serious watch over the pigs, the tortoises, and the whole crew while they graze.
