Meet the Residents

Meet the gentle souls—from hooves to feathers—who turn our farm into a sanctuary of healing.

The "Mini" Mainstays

They may be smaller in stature, but their impact is enormous. Our miniature residents provide all the grounding presence of a traditional farm in a size that feels approachable and safe for everyone.

Nick Nack

The Grand Duke of Fluff

Nick Nack is our resident Highland "teddy bear." He finds deep peace in a good grooming session, though as a teenager, he’s still figuring out exactly how wide his horns are! He is a beautiful reminder that we are all growing and learning about our own space.

Purcie

The Sweet & Pursistent One

A miniature mix of Hereford, Angus, and Dexter, Purcie is 400 lbs of pure personality. She is incredibly sweet, but as her name suggests, she can be quite pursistent—especially if she thinks you have a spare apple!

Cecelia "CeeCee"

The Matriarch Donkey

CeeCee came to WeeShire in search of a softer life. After a difficult start where her needs weren't being met, she has blossomed into our most intuitive resident. Her journey from rescue to sanctuary makes her an incredible partner for those who are also navigating their own paths to healing and trust.

Waffles

Fuzzy Apprentice

Adopted alongside her mother when she was just 10 months old, Waffles has spent her youth learning that humans are friends. Because she received the care and love she needed here at WeeShire, she is full of gentle curiosity. She is a wonderful example of how a little "pursistence" in care can lead to a lifetime of joy.

The Fainting Trip

Our fainting goats are the masters of the 'pause.' Their unique way of handling excitement is a wonderful lesson in how every body reacts differently to the world around us.

Kenny

Kenny was our first boy and remains the steady heart of the herd. As a wether, he’s extra mellow and excels at teaching the "newbies" (and the humans!) how to relax and enjoy the sunshine.

The First Boy & Peacekeeper

Cinder & Her Girls

Cinder is a fabulous mom to her two Turbo-sired daughters. This trio is high-energy, full of "popcorn" jumps, and always ready to investigate a new scent.

The Dynamic Trio

Ella & Her Girls

Ella and her two daughters are the socialites of the pen. They move as a unit, proving that family connection is the strongest force on the farm.

The Sweet Sisters Club

The Fainting Factor

Since all seven of our goats are "fainters," you might see them stiffen up when they're excited. It’s their unique way of saying, "Wow, hold on a minute!"

All About the "Flip"

Join the Fainting Herd

The Feathered Crew

From the rhythmic 'honk' of our guardians to the busy 'cluck' of our garden inspectors, our birds provide the natural soundtrack to life at WeeShire.

Pete & Repeat (Petunia)

Heads of Hospitality & Security

Our geese are the official "Welcoming Committee." Pete and Petunia (aka Repeat) ensure everything at WeeShire is running smoothly, announcing every visitor with a confident honk and a watchful eye.

The Duck Squadron

The Splash Coordinators

Our squadron is a delightful mix of personalities! From our upright-walking Indian Runners who zip around like bowling pins, to our sweet Mallard hen and our "Special Ops" Peckins—including our resilient blind duck and our wise "Grandma" duck

The Palace Flock

The Heritage Layers

Led by Red, our gentle rooster who loves to be held, these cold-hardy ladies live in the lap of luxury in the Chicken Palace. Many were hatched right here on the farm, making them the true heart of the homestead.

Sponsor the Palace & Courtyard

WeeShire Mains is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit sensory farm dedicated to providing a space to breathe, grow, and connect. Located in the heart of Kimball, Nebraska, we are cultivating resilience—one seed and one snuggle at a time.
