A Summer of Change

I never feel like summer is truly over until the last weekend in August, and it is now upon us!  Here at The Menagerie, we've made a lot of changes over the summer.  Brickman brought in babydoll sheep for his birthday in May.   Goat kids were born in May and June.  Emus and an Indu Brazilian bull were added in July.  More goat kids were born in July, which is also the month that we celebrated Indie's first birthday and we began open hours without having to make an appointment.  In August, three baby donkeys were born.  It's been a time of growth and change for us with our first summer under our belt.  We have lots of ideas of things we'd like to do, and exciting things are in store!  

What are your thoughts about The Menagerie?  We would love to hear your opinions.  Keep in mind, it's all a matter of time and money, and we are an agritourism business.  That means, we have no plans of adding any big cats, bears, or anything else that may want to eat one of our animals or visitors.  :)  

If you haven't visited us yet, we'd love to see you.  We'll be open this weekend on Saturday from 10am to 4pm and Sunday from 2pm to 6pm.

Here are a few pictures from our summer.

You can't help but want to kiss a baby goat! They're so cute!

Brickman was a little nervous the first time he fed one of the emus from his hand.
