A warm welcome to everyone from Mini-Aker's in the northern panhandle of Florida!
Mini-Aker's was established in 1997 on a two acre home site with varied species of miniature animals, hence, the name Mini-Aker's. A small rural one stop-light community the recognition that children only seemed to have a knowledge of dogs and cats, my husband (Donnie), and myself (Cathie), decided children (both adult and young) should have the opportunity to the exposure of what our wonderful animal friends were and so we started. Initially we began with miniature horses, pygmy goats, miniature rabbits of varied breeds, and a pair of lamas.
Since that time, Mini-Aker's has continued to grow and we moved just around the corner to a fifteen acre home where we began to work, build, and grow. We now have added miniature donkeys, varied breeds of chickens, miniature ducks, miniature deer (Muntjak), Patagonian cavies, Coatamundi, Fennec fox, Prarie dogs, and more. Our love for dogs and the miniature also led us to a large family of Pomeranians, which of course have to sleep with us and introduce our home to new guests. Many of our baby bottled children have been instrumental in my primary career of counseling. As you can probably recognize by now this is only a hobby on the side as I and my husband have full-time careers to feed so many delightful mouths.
We look forward to meeting many of you over the Internet and welcome you to our home to share the wonder of God's creatures.
We especially want to thank Ronda at RAK'S Web Design for doing such an excellent job, not only developing our website but also taking the time to take the pictures at our home.
