I got to take Critter to an AWESOME farm yesterday. It is filled with rescue animals of all sorts. The thing that I loved is that the kids could feed the animals, with scoops. For some reason it freaks me out when they do it out of their hands. Plus....the kids end up dropping most of the food. We were the first ones there, so we got a personal tour of the animals from the nicest guy. Of course Critter was totally shy...until he figured things out for himself. The cute thing was he was trying to pick the animals he wanted to feed. But....you did it through the fence and the really hungry/bossy animals were the ones up front. It sometimes bothered him....so cute!

He loved these goats. This guy he was feeding was the boss of the area. The guy who gave us the little tour actually went in to distract him so Critter could feed some other goats.
I had to get a picture of him with the "Zonkey". It is a zebra/donkey....Strange to see that is for sure. She was sure hungry for food though, she loved it when he fed her!
Your eyes are not confused....that is Critter feeding a HUGE camel! This guy was retired from doing rides at the zoo and brought here. He was huge! I love how Critter is looking up at him in this picture. He talked last night about how the camel was bigger than daddy!
There are not many times that I think Critter looks small....except here! Isn't that crazy :)

He really wanted to feed this deer, but the donkey kept getting in the way. So, when we went inside the barn area here he was! It made him so happy :)
This was right before we left. I wanted a picture of him....the funny thing is that the Llama stopped to pose as well. It just cracked me up!

It was such a fun day with my little man. I want to go back with Pumpkin too. It was so interesting to hear all the stories behind the animals and see what was there. It really restores my faith to see people who care so much about animals.
