Nobody ever said goats are stupid! Watch Noodle hook the bamboo with his horns, then bend it over so that Mushroom can eat it!

Only a few more weeks and our spur-thighed tortoises will be going into hibernation. I'm sure there are a few of us who would love to sleep all through winter and wake up in the spring.

We are loving the sunshine this week! Look at this adorable little quail sunbathing in the morning light!

It’s Guinea Pig Appreciation Day today so here's Maria, posing like a superstar!
Did you know:
💛Guinea Pigs don’t actually originate from Guinea but from the Andes region of South America! No one really knows where the ‘guinea’ part came from! (And they’re not pigs either! Another red herring!)
🩷Guinea pigs have more bones than humans!
🩵Guinea pigs have four toes on each of their front feet but only three toes on each of their back feet!
Pop a picture of your Guinea Pig furriends below so we can appreciate them ALL on their special day!

New arrivals!
We recently have given a home to this gorgeous quartet of teeny-tiny mice! The young ladies are already quite confident and are starting to come out for handling sessions.
We have animal handling sessions every day at 11.30 and 2.30 if you would like to meet them!
Our Pygmy goats just love their new rotating feeder! It's good to make them work for their food!

How sweet are our young Japanese Quail!
They are so inquisitive!

Ralph, our ferret, loves his new play tube. The inside is ridged, which is great for scratching that hard to reach itch!
