chèvre Russell

I am Russell

Russell is a small goat commonly and cruelly called meat-goat. When she arrived at SAFE in June 2020 she was only 4-6 months old at most. A little lost but resilient, she was rejected by the small herd of resident goats. This did not unduly defeat her: she took refuge with the cows and from her first days spent her days with them, nestled between these benevolent giants.

Then she tried to make room for herself in the barn by taking her place near the hens and making room for herself on the highest shelves usually reserved for the birds.
But it is since the arrival of Adam the little calf and Henry the sheep that she has really found her group of friends. They were inseparable, walking all over the sanctuary, an unusual trio who did not hesitate to enter the house of humans to see what mischief they could invent or simply to come and take a nap with the dogs of the home.

Russell is a foodie. For her, everything tastes good. When you are a goat there are few hiding places that resist climbing. Everyone’s food, including that of the hens, which is placed where it is thought to be out of reach, gets devoured. Thus, Russell is overweight. Fortunately the arrival of the 4 new goats, agile and playful, has changed life for Russell. She has made a place for herself among them, and all together, including Henry, run errands and play all day long. We hope that Russell will continue to lose weight and replace food with the friendship of his girlfriends.
