This is Ryan, my youngest, showing all the children at the party how to hold the duck. Although not technically the right way to hold him, Donald does not seem to mind being held this way at all. I use Indian Runner Ducks for the farm as they are my favourite type of duck. There are some advantages to being in charge. They also seem to tame really easily.
Bonny loves her food and is a very popular little rodent. Guinea pigs are much nicer pets than hamsters. They can be kept outdoors which is a major plus, they also eat just about anything and they don't make much noise. They get rabbit pellets as their staple diet with veggies and peelings as they are available.These two young lads are helping to "tame" baby bunnies. I get the children to put the rabbits in their shirts as they are less likely to drop or squeeze the rabbits when they hold them like this.
Sheila(sheep) and Gertie (Goat) checking out the scenery. That is of course when they are not eating the shrubbery, no one has complained yet. By being tethered like this, it gives the party goers a real up close and personal experience. The children hand feed them and get to feel Sheilas wool, which is a real crowd pleaser.
Although most of my bookings are for toddlers parties the most fun we ever have are the parties when there are older siblings or guests. As much as the 9-11's deny it, they absolutely love the interaction with the animals.
