Veteran owned and operated family farm

Why Big E? My son's name is Eric and his nickname well.....you get the picture! It is his show I just do the internet things for him since he is on the road delivering over 120k miles a year all over the east coast.

We've been dealing with livestock all our lives. I was the horse crazy kid they called a barn rat growing up...After over 40 years of trading in livestock...In 2019 decided need a website..HERE WE ARE! 

I'm a female USAF Veteran with custody of my deceased daughters small child. You can see her enjoying herself in our photos... always barefoot and dirty but having fun!  Loves dresses and bare feet...She is quiet the pony and donkey lover. She has her own herd she feeds herself daily. 

The physical labor and expert on exotics is My son Eric. He is a young man who loves dealing with all types of livestock. He started with specialty birds at a young age but he really likes cattle and exotics..so together  we are Big E Livestock.  

We choose to be the kind of people you can rely on. We may not get to your voice mail quickly..prefer text.. or get your delivery on the exact time but we strive to provide you an honest livestock transaction. We are human not perfect but you will never have to worry when dealing with us. We stand behind everything we sell.

    We live in a crazy world but buying livestock doesn't have to be difficult. 

     Livestock have minds of their own but we have various livestock in pastures together to insure compatibility. We handle them for vet visit, working drawing blood etc. We insure to the best of our abilities they will be what we say they are. 

We know you have options when buying livestock we just ask you give us a try! ;) We deliver and you pay when we get there. It's the internet but you don't have to worry with us..we have a conscience and want you to recommend us to your friends!

We have many repeat customers and we deliver the entire east coast. Let us help stock your barnyard!

We enjoy pairing you up with animals that fulfill your needs and that you will enjoy owning. We have over 50 years experience in the livestock industry starting out in 4H in the 1970s. I used to carry bottle calves in my VW bug from the dairy to bottle raise! 

I've shown AQHA, 4H, Open shows throughout the East Coast and trained my own champion horses over the years. Now physically unable to ride much due to a horse accident 2012 my son provides most of the physical labor involved but you may meet me delivering! My son or I deliver the animals unless you are far west (Ca) we have haulers. 

I've found Donkeys are the safest livestock to own and if I can handle them so can you!

We understand it's an investment and adventure new to many. We strive to match you up with livestock you will be proud to own. As you can see in our farm photos our donkeys etc are used to kids...we don't sell anything that is shown to be aggressive to people or smaller livestock.

We are always available to our clients for advice and assistance. You don't have to worry when you purchase from us as we are not like anyone you have ever dealt with before.... We are genuine people who communicate and aim for happy customers and happy critters. Yes I tend to talk too much so please text if that would bother you. You can't say I didn't warn you... They say With age comes wisdom...well I'm old enough to know some things and I'll help you anyway I can.  We don't mind sharing anything  we know about the animals with you.

Need a kids horse or trail horse? We try to always have good family animals. Equine bovine or what have you. Kid tested..

Need something hauled? We can help you.

You buy a Donkey from us and you can't get a halter on it?  We will stop by in our travels and put a halter on your donkey.

Moving need to haul your livestock we can help there too. 

Decide you want more animals of any kind contact us we can help.

Unsure which wormer to use? Give use a call or text.

Decide you don't want to be a farmer anymore? Getting divorced or a life change we will purchase your livestock. Dont panic we will help you if we can! 

If you have questions we are happy to answer them!

Non refundable Deposit comes off your total due upon delivery. Deposits are accepted on. Zelle Cash app? Consider it a restocking fee....It will be used for livestock feed. Consider it a donation for the crippled old donkeys and cows I can't rehome. I am looking for good homes for the animals that means people who have a word. No bullshit no excuses. Livestock are an investment to be taken seriously.

 The balance will be due on delivery so you're not out any money if you fulfill our agreement. It sure gets old holding a mini pony 3 weeks arrange shipping to California and the woman changes her mind...without mentioning it for weeks..waits til day before shipper picks up..after I call her...to mention it...better yet delivering 500 miles tell the people you're 30 mins away they say SORRY I CANT TAKE THEM...I communicate A LOT to let you know when we are coming etc. There is no excuse to not inform me you changed your mind. BTW I don't get mad if people back out as a rule but often I turn down great homes for animals FOR YOU TO GET THEM.   There is no excuse for an animal to be loaded headed to you when you changed your mind AND DIDNT HAVE THE COURTESY TO MENTION IT TO US. 

Due to the sorry people in our society now a NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF $200 IS DUE TO HOLD EACH ANIMAL. A pair of donkeys cows etc $400 deposit required.single donkey cow etc $200 non refundable deposit required. Balance due upon delivery. DEPOSITS ACCE Zelle or Cash App or PayPal Friends and Family.  You change your mind a week later you can forget your deposit. Just8PTED ON CASH APP...ZELLE...or PayPal friends and family only. 

1. If something happens and I can't deliver to you, animal becomes unavailable for whatever reason I refund your deposit.
