Fuquay-Varina goat farm goes viral

Fuquay-Varina's viral TikTok star just gave birth to two new babies!

The 'udderly' adorable Beverly took social media by storm with her heartwarming journey to motherhood at the Smith Farm Goat Sanctuary.

With over 1.4 million views and counting on TikTok, Beverly's playful spirit and active lifestyle, despite her growing belly, captured the hearts of animal lovers worldwide.

Viewers couldn't get enough, flooding the comments with messages like "This is the cutest thing I've ever seen!" and cheering Beverly on with a simple "Go Beverly!"

Early Monday morning, around 3 a.m., Beverly gave birth to two little ones. The internet cheered as Beverly finally gave birth to two new babies.

"Welcome to the world, little ones! Rest up Mama Bev!" cheered commenters.

Jesi Wilde, the creator of the popular TikTok page for Smith Farm Goat Sanctuary, where "Bev Talk" originated, never anticipated attaining such widespread fame.

She volunteers at the farm, which is on private property for now, and offered to manage their social media presence.

"I told Jason, the owner, I'd handle the social media side and he could focus on the goats," Wilde said.

Wilde, who recently moved to Fuquay-Varina a year ago, said she has always been an animal lover, so once she saw the goat sanctuary behind her house, she connected with the owner, Jason, and offered help with social media and posting the goats.

"I was like, can I do a TikTok page for the sanctuary and see if we can maybe make like an income stream to help with all the all of your expenses," Wilde said.

Beverly's newfound fame has even sparked the curiosity of millions of people who want to know about goat care and pregnancy. Many viewers have expressed interest in learning more about these fascinating animals.

While this isn't Beverly's first rodeo with motherhood, it could be extra special.

Over a year ago, she gave birth to twins but sadly lost one shortly after. This time, the farm owner, Jason, suspects twins again based on Beverly's size being similar to her last pregnancy.

"Jason says she is the same size she was last time when she was carrying twins," Wilde said. "We don't know yet, but it could be a possibility that she gives birth again to twins, and that would be so exciting."

While the sanctuary isn't currently open to the public, Jason, the owner, dreams of making it a public space.

"His vision is to turn this into a sanctuary where schools and others can come meet the goats," Wilde said.

Whether Beverly is welcoming a single kid or a set of mischievous multiples, one thing's for sure, the world is eagerly awaiting her little ones' arrival.

Animal lovers can catch a glimpse of the playful kids and all the goats on the Smith Farm Goat Sanctuary's 24/7 live stream on YouTube.

The sanctuary also has a GoFundMe page set up to help cover their expenses and make Jason's dream of a public sanctuary a reality. With your help, visitors from all over the world will be able to come to meet Beverly and the other friendly goats.
