Our Rare Breed Animals We have numerous different animals, including pigs, sheep, goats, cattle, poultry and miniature ponies. Many of our animals are classed as rare breeds and some are even endangered, such as the Eriskay Pony. Our aim is to not only provide an excellent fun filled, educational visit but to also preserve animals for future generations. We take pride in our breeding program which is helping to increase the numbers of rare breed farm animals in Britain and save them from extinction. The pride of our program are our two Eriskay ponies from the Hebrides in Scotland. These are small ponies that used to be used for draft work and driving before cars were invented! Unfortunately the species has been getting smaller and smaller in number until finally they got to the stage when there were so few left that the Rare Breeds Survival Trust considered their status critical and took measures to up the numbers. A little known fact is that they are still rarer than the giant Panda! We are enormously lucky to have two of these beautiful animals right here on the farm for you to see and hopefully we can get to the point one day with your help and our hard work when they are thriving and a long way from extinction. Visitors can see our wide range of farm animals including the "Baby Farm" where lambs, kids and piglets all happily wandering around with their mums (seasonal). You can also feed the animals with food bought in the shop. Pets Park is a wonderful place where you can cuddle and stroke the friendly pygmy goats whilst feeding them. The rabbit barn and aviary has many different breeds of rabbits, also varying in size!! There is also a guinea pig corner where the guinea pigs run around in between their houses. The aviary is full of brightly coloured budgies, canaries and zebra finches.
