YOUNG THOMAS, the Royal Palm turkey, is ready for love this time of year at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. Turkeys are seasonal breeders and soon his wife TURKEY LURKEY will be laying her speckled eggs. Farmer Mary hopes to have babies hatch this year. Did you know baby turkeys are called “poults”?
Winterpast Farm will be open next for visits on Wednesday from 10 til rain (or 5:00). Right now the forecast is for rain that day which may close the farm for visits. Please check back for any weather related updates. Farmer Mary will post at 8am.
Please read the entire “Your Visit” section at www.winterpast.org to learn how you can schedule a farm visit, our admission price (cash only) and a list of food you can bring to feed all the animals.
Please do not try to feed the baby goats or the lambs while you are here-they only drink their moms milk!!
Come snuggle the baby goats! They won’t stay little for long! Maybe LUNAwill finally birth while you are here!
