Donie’s Paddocks

See a large variety of animals including  Reindeer, Falabella Horses, Geese, Alpaca and lots more.

 

 

Alpaca Family 

We belong to the camel family. We are from the Andes Mountains in South America. We are used to very hot and very cold weather. Our woolly fleece keeps us warm in the winter. In the summertime the farmer shears us and uses the fleece to make clothing.

We have many alpaca’s at the farm. Come and visit and you may even see some new baby alpacas. In summer 2024 we had two new baby alpacas born at the farm called Pat and Joey. 

Falabella Horses

These are one of the smallest breeds of horses in the world . These are very affectionate horses and can only be ridden by the smallest of children.  One fascinating fact about the Falabella horses is that they have the same size hearts as larger horse breeds. 

We have two Falabella’s on the farm. Their names are Rolly and Romeo. During the summer months Rolly and Romeo are taken out for petting so that children can rub, brush and interact with our horses. 

 

Geese

Goose is actually the term for female geese, male geese are called ganders. A group of geese on land or in water are a gaggle, while in the air they are called a skein. Geese eat seeds, nuts, grass, plants, and berries. They are the largest waterfowls, the other being swans.

We have two geese at the farm. Their names are Grumpy Gandalf and Emmet.
