Andrea S.
Westland

They’re so adorable!! I loved seeing the babies. It’d be great to see even more cows and horses.
(Maybury Farm operates on donations and admissions and we must always be cautious that we can afford all of the animals. Our feed bill is one of the most costly expenses we have. We also have 5 pastures and often people may look only in the barn or at one or two pastures. Our animals are all through the farm. )
Presently we have:
• 12 goats
• 12 sheep
• 15 lambs and kids
• 2 pigs (waiting for piglets)
• 2 draft horses
• 2 miniature horses
• 1 miniature donkey
• 4 peacocks
• 12 ducks
• 100 chickens/roosters
• 2 llamas
• 1 cow
• 2 calves
• 6 bunnies

We love the animals.
