Overview

We are fully insured.
We plan on bringing at least one each of the following: llama, alpaca, mini donkey, mini horse or pony, mini cow, angora goat, nubian goat, nigerian dwarf goat, shetland sheep, Jacob (4 horned) sheep, baby doll sheep, kahtadin sheep, rabbit, mini pot bellied pig, and various chickens. We bring as many baby animals as we have available for the event.
We bring feed to feed the animals.
We bring hand sanitizer and paper towels for cleaning hands.
We can do pony rides for birthdays.
We can either be on grass or pavement, but the animals prefer grass.
We will clean everything up and the only reason you will know we were there is by the area that the animals mowed for you.

Awesome petting zoo!

Everyone enjoyed seeing all the animals, especially providing food for everyone to feed them. The family was very nice. They came, even though rain was in the forecast. I loved they cared enough to bring tents for the animals when it rained. Loved the care they gave to their zoo pets.

About

We started getting more animals and unique animals and decided that we should do something so other people can enjoy them as well. We set up at our local town festival and local nursing home for a couple of years and figured if they liked the animals, other people probably would to! We now set up for town festivals, county fairs, retirement homes, daycares, schools, bar mitzvahs, birthday parties, wedding receptions, family reunions, photo shoots, live nativities, corporate events, pumpkin patches, sports events, promotional events, and more! We are a husband and wife with our 5 year old son and 2 year old daughter who do this on the side as a hobby. Message us for more information on what event we can help you turn into a barnyard!

Additional booking notes

As long as we can get our trailer to the location and you have a place to fill buckets with water, we can make it work!

Setup requirements

An open area that is accessible with a pickup and trailer that preferably has shade. Water withing a reasonable walking distance. Electricity nearby to run fans.
