Downsizing Sale at On Eagle’s Wings Acres
We’re doing a bit of refocusing here at On Eagle’s Wings Acres, and will be downsizing some of our animals to concentrate more on our sheep and poultry. All animals listed below are unregistered but healthy, well-cared for, and accustomed to a homestead lifestyle.
If you’re looking to add some friendly faces to your farm or hobby homestead, take a look at what we have available below! I will add current pictures as I take some.Nigerian Dwarf Goats
These little goats are a favorite for homesteads and families alike. They’re compact, easy-to-handle, and full of personality. Most are unregistered, but have been raised with care. Funny enough, our foundation does were registered with the NDGA, and our foundation buck is registered with the AGS, but I never got around to getting them on the same registry. I can give details for each goat upon request. This list includes our very favorite doe, Clover, who is an amazing mama, and very social with people.
Clover- Nigerian Dwarf doe, 4 years old, disbudded, has had twins three times (including two of the new babies listed below), her mother was a triplet, Bellemeadow dairy lines. $300
Karen- Nigerian Dwarf doe, 2 years old, just kidded with twins this December, horned, her mother was also a triplet (Clover is her cousin). White with blue eyes. $300
Basil- Nigerian Dwarf buck, registered with the AGS, 6 years old, disbudded (with scurs), proven many times over and has adorable kids. Blue Cactus dairy lines. Exceptionally sociable and friendly. He has been pastured with day-old kids and their mamas many times, and is an absolute gentleman with them. I have zero worries about my little (human) kids going out in the pasture with him. He is truly the ideal homestead family buck. $200
Sage- Nigerian Dwarf buck, son of Basil, 4 years old, white with blue eyes, disbudded (with scurs), not as social with people as Basil but still very gentle, and a gentleman with the ladies. $150Bottle Babies- All babies can go to their new homes as bottle babies in 2-3 weeks, or in a couple of months weaned from mama. Alternatively, take home a mama and her babies together for an adorable starter herd, at a discount.
Born December 13th from Karen. The light-colored one is a doeling, with blue eyes. She will be a stunner when she is grown! $300
The darker colored one is a buckling. $150
Born December 21st from Clover. They are both bucklings. $150 each
Miniature Horse Mare – $1500
Marshmallow is about 6 years old, and green broke to ride. This little mare would be a sweet and flashy addition to any small farm. Leads, stands for the farrier, all that jazz. She comes right up to you in the pasture, and is easy to catch. She is very in-your-pocket, curious, and always wants to be in the middle of everything. Marshmallow is sound, healthy, and is an easy keeper. She is pictured at the top of this post, and available to meet in person.
Miniature Donkey Jenny – $850
This 12 year old jenny is gentle and used to being around goats, horses, and children. Syl is a perfect pasture companion and loves a good scratch. She was a rescue, so most of her background is unknown. My understanding is that she is broke to ride (for very little kids, of course), but I have never tried. I was also told she has had several foals. I believe she foundered at some point in her life, but we’ve never had any issues (note that we are careful not to let her weight creep up, and are slow about putting her out on spring grass, but she’s not on any medications or dry-lotted). Syl loves being around people, but has also been pastured with horses, cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, and poultry with no issues.
Dexter Cattle
Dexters are a wonderful, dual-purpose breed for small farms, and we have one available:
Miss Maple Moo- Dexter cow, great mom that calves unassisted. She is currently open (not bred). We’re still deciding whether to let this girl go. She’s been a great dairy cow for us, very easy to milk, and is happy on much smaller pastures than full-size ladies. We’ve never had a health issue with her. If you’re looking for a hardy family cow, she might be the one! $2500
Interested?
We are located in Panama City, Florida. Local pickup only for the larger hoofstock, but we can arrange delivery for a fee within the surrounding area for any of the smaller guys.
Feel free to message us through our Facebook page or contact me at 850-890-2389 for more info, photos, or to schedule a visit. We’d love to see these animals go to great homes!You May Also Like

We’re continuing to hatch out chicks regularly this spring. If you’re looking to start or expand your flock with healthy chicks raised with love and care, we’ve got you covered! Chicks are $5 each, and availability is limited. We are hatching out every 22 or so days, with the next one due on the 21st.

Stay tuned for our official opening day!As always, thank you for supporting our little slice of North Florida farm life.

Chicks Coming Soon!
Morning all!
We’ve received a number of calls regarding chicks in the last week or so, and I’ve hated having to tell people we don’t have any right now. Typically, we start getting lots of interest in chicks in March, but the rising egg prices are driving earlier than usual requests.
We have a full incubator of chicken and duck eggs going right now, and will be starting a second incubator shortly to keep up with demand.
I will post here and on Facebook when hatch day rolls around (about 17 more days).
One farm update, unrelated to chick news. We are suspending scheduling parties on the farm for the next few months. We are working on some exciting renovations on the farm right now to better serve both our livestock and our customers, but until they are completed, we won’t have our usual venue space open to host parties. Sorry! Hopefully, we will be back on that soon. We are planning to have a big open farm day when the renovations are complete, to welcome folks back to the farm.
Until then, we will still be selling chicks/ducklings, lamb/pig shares, meat chickens, and fresh eggs as usual. We are also opening the waitlist for Thanksgiving turkeys soon. Please reach out with any questions. I’m easiest to reach by text (850-890-2389), but we also have e-mail and Facebook messenger.

State of the Farm – Spring
Spring is one of my favorite times on the farm. It’s always full of changes, new life, anticipation, and hope. This year is shaping up to be a big one on the farm. It’s set to be a season with lots of beginnings and endings.
Let’s knock out the endings first.
-We are selling off most of our goat herd this spring. We have a handful of purebred Nigerian Dwarves still available, but I anticipate us being down to only three goats soon. We are transitioning away from the goat market to a different one (one of those beginnings, I mentioned).
-On a sadder note, our sweet gelding lost his battle with heart failure yesterday. Our boy will be missed. He was forever begging for treats from anyone and everyone, and was exactly the horse we needed and loved.
That does leave us without a rideable horse for kids over 100 pounds for the time being. Please keep this in mind when you are booking an event with us. We will still be able to accomodate pony rides for kids under 100 pounds with Princess Sparkles (and soon, Marshmallow!).
Ready for the beginnings? Yeah, me too.
-For the first time ever, we will be offering lamb shares in the fall. We’ve raised meat sheep before, but only for our family. It’s mild in flavor, tasty, and an incredibly healthy option. This year begins sharing lamb with the public, and I’m super excited about it! Availability is quite limited this year, so message me to be put on the waitlist.
These lambs will be grassfed on rotating pastures, making them healthy and happy while also enriching the soil. We are adding some Katadhin ewes and a Katadhin/Dorper ram from Oakvale Farms to our sheep flock. They will produce excellent meat lambs, and fantastic breeding stock for other homesteaders interested in adding hair sheep to their farms.
If you aren’t familiar with meat shares, the way it works is that you can buy a whole or half of a market-sized lamb, we deliver the sheep to a processor, and you pick up the meat from them, then straight to your freezer. It’s a great way to buy in bulk from local farms.
We charge $8.75 per pound, and then you pay the processing fees to the processor. It usually ends up being about $10-12 per pound. The total amount of meat from a Katadhin lamb varies, but is usually somewhere in the realm of 55-80 pounds.
We will also be offering meat chickens again this year, after a break last year to have a baby right at the begin of meat chicken season. They will be $5 a pound, so approximately $25 for a whole chicken.
This is not just any whole chicken, but the best chicken you’ve ever had. Our chickens are raised on rotating pastures, scratching for bugs, and living their best lives. We feed locally milled chicken feed, and they will be processed right here on the farm. Meat chickens will be on-farm pickup, though we also offer delivery within the surrounding area with a per-mile delivery fee. They will be available starting in early May, so jump on the waitlist now.
Another cool development is that we will be adding a store to our farm website, so you should be able to order products (like our meat chickens) right from the comfort of your home. Bear with me as we struggle through the initial hiccups I’m sure will happen! 😉
-Lastly, we will be adding a Livestock Guardian Dog to the farm. A female Maremma puppy, who will need a couple years of training before she is effective at her job, but who should help with the predation we’ve been experiencing the last few years. She is unnamed, as of yet, but will certainly be making an appearance in our photos. LGDs may end up being serious, somber dogs, but they sure start off as cuddly, round, ridiculous puppies like every other.
I’m ecstatic and hopeful about the direction the farm is going. We look forward to partnering with the community to bring more healthy, local food options to the table.

Schedule An Event
Fall and (somewhat) cooler weather are on the way! Now would be a great time to plan ahead and get on the schedule for a farm event to enjoy that brief period of absolutely beautiful Florida fall, surrounded by farm animals. Have a kiddo who loves horses or can’t get over the cuteness of little goats? Throw them a birthday party they’ll never forget!
We offer birthday party hosting, starting at $200 for 2 hours or $300 for 3 hours.
That includes a covered event area in our barn to open presents, have cake, etc., petting/feeding access to goats, sheep, pigs, horses, donkeys, rabbits, chickens, ducks, and turkeys, and your choice of 2 activities (pony rides, hay rides, pony grooming/brushing, or pony painting), or 3 activities if you opt for 3 hours. We have a couple folding tables in the barn, and 15 folding chairs, but you are welcome to bring more, as well as any decorations you might want to put up beforehand. The barn is not air conditioned, but we do have a cross breeze and fans to help mitigate that middle-of-summer scorching heat.
We also offer field trips for school or homeschool co-ops, work socials, baby showers, or whatever else puts you in the mood to love on some friendly farm animals.
Let me know if you have any questions or would like to get on the schedule.
