Happy from Daffodil the Pygmy goat! 🐐
When the Farmyard is open, many guests often see Daffodil in the petting yard and assume she is a baby, but she is actually fully grown. Pygmy goats get their name from their small size and are one of the smallest breeds of goat around. 😊
Don’t let her small size fool you, though. Daffodil has one big personality! She is known among animal keepers for her outgoing antics and sassy dramatics within the herd, but during the summer, she loves to relax and nap in the sun. In fact, her favorite way to spend the day is getting showered with attention and scratches while she soaks up the sunshine. If she is not hanging out with one of her many goat or sheep friends, she is probably being petted by a guest or her favorite animal keeper. 🌼
Right now, Daffodil is cozying up with her best friends to stay warm, but she cannot wait for more naps in the sun once the Farmyard reopens in the spring! ☀
