Harvest Breeze Farm
•Bearded Silkies•Bantam Cochins•NPGA Pygmy Goats•
Hi, my name is Shari McCollough. Welcome to Harvest Breeze Farm's website. Me, along with my husband
Larry have 5 beautiful children, Haley 20, she is a sophomore at Purdue University, Kinsey 17, Reagan
14, Kyle 12 and Mason 6. It's a full time job but very enjoyable!! Our hobby farm is located in West
Central Indiana. We are in the heart of the corn belt! I absolutely LOVE where we live. It's in the country,
surrounded by fields of corn and soybeans. I really enjoy the privacy, peace and quiet. Our farm is FULL of
life.  We always have something going on; if it's not the new chicks hatching, it's baby kids being born. We
currently have: two llamas (Equalizer and Majestic), 23 pygmy goats, and several chickens. I focus only on
the bearded silkies and bantam cochins. We also have three dogs; Zoey(German Shepherd), Oliee(Jack
Russell Terrier) and Isabella(Boston Terrier). Our family also enjoys reptiles, we have a Brazilian
Rainbow Boa named Rain and a Bearded Dragon named Louie and two pet rats Tooie and Nakie. Never a
dull moment here trust me:)

I am currently participating in my 5th year of exhibiting poultry and my 7th year of breeding silkies and
cochins. We are currently raising silkies in: white, black, splash ,and blue, now WORKING on lavender. We
raise bantam cochins, in white, black, blue and splash varieties.  

We are not a hatchery, we raise our birds for our own enjoyment first, our goal here is not money, it's
raising the best, breeding to the standard set for each species in mind at all times. We only breed from
animals that are Vigorous, Productive, Fertile, Disease Resistant and Live long Healthy lives. Yes,
Longevity is very important to me, after all without life you cannot possess any of these other important
traits.   

Feel free to stop by anytime, I try to update once a week, I work and my family comes first so once a week
updates don't always happen. I also do not always answer emails as they come in, so don't worry if I don't
answer in the first day, I'm just a very busy person and don't always have time to jump on the computer.
With that said, thank you for stopping by!!

Hugs,
The McCollough Family

TRUE FRIENDS
The Bible describes a true friend. “A real friend is always loving and is like a brother born just for the
purpose of helping during difficulties.” [Proverbs 17:17 NCMM] “A friend sticks closer than any brother.”
[Proverbs 18:24 NCMM] “The pain [of counsel] caused by a true friend are honest and trustworthy. … Also
the wise suggestions of a friend is sweet to the soul.” [Proverbs 27:6, 9 NCMM] A friend ALWAYS
comes to the aid of a friend in need. Friends are NEVER critical of one another. That is left for married
couples. Friends NEVER gossip or slander one another, but rather ALWAYS defend one another. A true
friend can keep a confidence. True friends are always welcome and may even impose on one another at
inconvenient times. [Luke 11:5-9] There are false friends, however.

Identifying True Friends
True friends never slander or speak negatively EVER of one another.
True friends share equally one another’s surplus
True friends ALWAYS come to the aid of one another - materially, emotionally, and spiritually
True friends know ABSOLUTELY that they can rely and trust one another
True friends ALWAYS know where one another is or is going.
True friends will make EVERY KIND of sacrifice to help one another.
True friends ALWAYS defend and protect one another.
True friends NEVER betray a confidence.
True friends do not need to ask the other to help themselves to the other’s refrigeration and food cupboard
for that is a given.

So, now ask yourself......what kind of friend are you??
