Chipmunks
Chipmunks are small rodents of the squirrel family. There are a total of 25 different species and are mostly found in North and West America. Their diet consists of grain, nuts, fruit, berries, worms and insects.
Rabbits
They love attention and being cuddled and handled by our visitors.
Quail
Quail is a small game bird and is part of the pheasant family. They are very difficult to see, but can be heard, often calling from the grass fields. They like to eat seeds and insects.
Guinea Pigs
Guinea Pigs are social creatures and prefer to live in groups. They can often be heard ‘chattering’ to one another.
Chinchillas
Our Chinchillas are both male and are called Snap and Crackle. They are rodents that are ‘crepuscular’ – which means that they are active at dawn and dusk. They are native to South America.
Hermanns Tortoises
Our two Hermanns Tortoises are called Dexter and Fergie and were born in January 2016. They have a yellow/orange domed shell with black markings. They do not have teeth, just a strong beak.
Degus
Degus are diurnal – which means they are out and about during the daytime hours, often foraging. They are a close relative to the Chinchilla, and look very much like an oversized Gerbil.
