This place is amazing. The animals are well socialized, happy, and healthy and the staff is so educated, friendly, and honestly a breath of fresh air. The whole facility is clean and if you have ever been around any of these animals you know that is a task especially indoors. Like I said this place is amazing so please let them keep it that way. Please make your children and even the adults you're with mind their manners.

My wife and I had a great time here! The animals are all friendly. Our favorite was Olivia, the Patagonian Cavy! She was super cute. The staff were all really nice and informative as well!

Do they stay in larger enclosures than shown?

Marsha Welch | Aug 18, 2020

The petting area is a more open space where the baby goats, sheep, chickens and capybara are located. The alpaca is in a smaller pen within the petting area. Outside of that, the remaining animals are either in a windowed office size room of their own or kept in habitats within a shared room. They do not have a large abundance of animals but enough to enjoy. The animals are clearly well taken care of, fed and cleaned up after regularly.

Where are they getting these animals from?

The older, geriatric animals belong to us. Many are born in cold months and when moms reject them, people call us to bottle raise them until they are weaned. Sometimes moms with babies are brought to us also to foster. All of our reptiles, bunnies, Guinea pigs and ferrets have been donated because kids lost interest and many of the exotics are ours or are on loan.
