People wonder how we got into porcupines. To be honest, I was very reluctant! I can't even tell you when or how it happened. It just happened! One day we got a porcupine named Fluffy... (of course his name was Fluffy) It did not take long for us to realize how SWEET and DOCILE these creatures are! ( They do not have a mean bone in their entire body. ) SO many people do not understand them and think they are vicious beasts, when the reality is that they are just a giant guinea pig with a great defense mechanism and ALL they want is for you (and your dog!) to leave them alone.
We first started in porcupines in 2012. Since then we have built a reputation as one of the few North American Porcupine breeders in the US. 99% of the babies we sell go to hands on petting zoos that take them out into the public to educate people about how great they are. They are definitely not your average pet, but I have to say.... we sure do love these guys!!
