1. Adequate Housing & Space:

We provide our animals with comfortable and appropriate housing that meets their physiological and behavioral needs. This includes sufficient space for movement, resting areas, and protection from extreme weather conditions.

Our animals have access to clean and fresh water at all times. We provide a balanced and nutritionally appropriate diet that meets their specific nutritional requirements.  

3. Grazing & Pasture Access:

Our animals graze on open pastures, promoting natural behaviors, exercise, and exposure to natural sunlight.  

4. Animal Health Care:

We provide regular veterinary care and preventive health measures, such as vaccinations and parasite control. We continuously monitor animal health and promptly treat illnesses or injuries to prevent unnecessary suffering.

We consider animal welfare in breeding programs and avoid genetic traits that may negatively impact the health or well-being of the animals. We promote natural breeding behaviors and avoiding excessive inbreeding.  

8. Environmental Enrichment:

Our animals are able interact with others of their own species, when appropriate, promoting socialization and avoiding prolonged isolation.
