THE BIG RACE

Ready, get set, go! And they’re off! ALBERTA the pregnant Jacob sheep has her head down taking the lead. STELLA the mini horse is neck in neck with CLAIRE the mini donkey. Our other mini donkey, MABEL, is not sure why anyone would choose to leave the cozy barn where she for one is very content to be munching on hay. 

Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest is open for visits tomorrow from 10-5.

EEYORE THE BABY BUNNY

Meet EEYORE the baby bunny who is just 8 weeks old and who moved to Winterpast Farm a few days ago. EEYORE is a “Velveteen” (unofficial) breed which is a mix between a velvety soft Rex and a super long eared French Lop. This photo with Farmer Mary’s daughter makes him look bigger than he really is.
