I have a problem with this site.

From my understanding, Amish don't believe in any sort of technology- they live their lives in a basic way, shunning most forms of technology. I have little faith in the values of a breeder or group of breeders that will abandon their beliefs for the sake of a sale.

Second, in the first paragraph of the website, there is a statement on how the Amish are known for how well they treat their animals. The only things I've heard about an Amish group or family's treatment of animals have been that they are mistreated and view their animals as property. (I realize that this doesn't necessarily mean all Amish abuse or mistreat their animals, but unfortunately the only things I've heard have been negative.)

I didn't look further into the site than the first page becuase of the two points I just made. For those two reasons alone I would have no faith in the health or treatment of the animal I purchased from that website, and would have little or no faith in the people selling the animals.
