Welcome to Dalby Farm in Scituate, MA—a family owned and operated animal sanctuary dedicated to protecting rare breeds and raising community appreciation for all things animals. Our mission is to educate and inspire, and our latest arrivals are a perfect example of that commitment!
Meet our adorable Ossabaw Island piglets, the newest members of our family! They traveled all the way from Conner Prairie in Indiana and have quickly made themselves at home in “Pumpkin’s Hog House.” This special space was once home to Pumpkin, a beloved 19-year-old Ossabaw who lived with us until June 2024.
From the moment they arrived, these little ones adapted seamlessly, eagerly accepting belly rubs on their first day- revealing already developed delightful personalities
To prepare for their arrival, we gave Pumpkin’s house a thorough cleaning, filled it with fresh straw and shavings, and set up a cozy outdoor enclosure reminiscent of the one we created for old Pumpkin.. safe and small!
Pigs are smarter than dogs, so we’ve started daily training sessions to bond and teach them new tricks! Join us on this journey as we nurture these precious piglets and continue our mission to protect and celebrate rare breeds. 🐷💕
