Toast And Bounty At Odds Farm Park
The farm staff at popular children’s farm Odds Farm Park are keeping extra busy with the recent arrival of two new calves!
Both sharing the same father, a visiting British White bull called Prospero, but not the same mothers, the calves have been named Bounty and Brutus. Bounty was born to mother Toast, a beautiful Belted Galloway cow and is therefore a cross breed. Brutus is pure bred as his mother, Twilight, is also a British White cow.
The new additions and their mothers are currently in the Dipple Field and can be seen by families on a day out when taking a fun Tractor and Trailer ride around the farm.
Elsewhere at this top farm park, there’s stacks more to do on a family day out. With plenty more furry friends to meet, hours of Outdoor Play and the Indoor Playbarn, complete with Astra Slide, Ride-on Toys and the Bale Climb, what will you do first?

Cheeky Harry The Golden Guernsey Goat
Visitors to family day out favourite, Odds Farm Park, will be in for a surprise when they visit!
Following an accidental mating in the spring between cheeky Harry, a Golden Guernsey billy goat, and adorable Annie, a Bagot nanny goat, an extremely cute kid goat called Benji was recently born!
The Rare Breed Survival Trust classes Bagot goats as “Vulnerable” and Golden Guernsey goats as “Minority”. At this children’s farm, both individual breeds are part of active breeding programs and normally pure bred to ensure the kids have healthy blood lines.

Annie The Bagot Goat With Cute Kid Benji
The accidental mating between Harry and Annie was a rare occurrence when Harry escaped one evening and, as visitors on a day out will discover, the new arrival looks nothing like his mother but just like his father!
