What a good girl little Flora is.

Check out this great little video that Jorja made of a day in the life of Sherbert the lamb.

Is there anything cuter than a bunny having a wash? Come and meet Peter (we know- very unoriginal) and Ella the rabbits, Barney the goats, Flora the Shetland pony and Pedro the donkey at The Museum of Somerset in Taunton today.

We already knew Fred was the coolest goat in the world but he took it a step further today by starring in a music video in London.

Possibly the only thing cuter than a rabbit having a wash, is a one-eared rabbit having a wash.

Our bunnies enjoying the evening sun. They love having the run of their large enclosure when we're around to make sure mr fox doesn't take one for dinner.

Splash says spring is in the air!

Shetland Zoomies!

Our wonderful Dinky hit BBC1 on Monday, starring in 'The Play That Goes Wrong'. She was an absolute star during filming on the day. She stood so well that it was hard to get her to move out from underneath the actor but food did the job in the end! A massive thank you to Christal, Dinky's owner, for allowing her to live with us. All the children adore her.

All set up at Somerset Rural Life Museum with Charlie the donkey, Flora the pony, Inky the sheep and Harry and Fred the goats.
