Meet Tinsel The Heifer Jersey Calf

Tinsel our beautiful little heifer Jersey calf was born on 20 December 2008 and with a little helping hand from the farm staff she arrived at 9.30am. Her mum Missy has had many calves before but this is the first time one of her calves has been born at Odds Farm. Tinsel will grow up at Odds Farm and join the herd and will hopefully have her own baby in a couple of years, so you can come and watch her grow up at the farm and become a mother herself. Tinsel has a beautiful white star on her forehead and you can meet and pat her in our daily Meet the Animals activity. Jerseys are a very beautiful, docile breed of cow and produce lovely creamy milk. The Queen has a herd of Jersey cattle at Windsor!

Odds Farm Park is one of the leading farm parks in the area and offers a great day out for the whole family. It’s located just off the M40 at Junction 2, easily reached from West London, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire.

Middle White Piglets Born

On Tuesday 19 January, Cider, the Middle White pig who is a first time mum, gave birth to beautiful piglets. Visitors on the day were lucky enough to see the piglets being born. Cider started farrowing at about 9.30am and continued to give birth until 1.30pm. After the delivery Cider had a well deserved rest. Cider’s sister Scrumpy, also at Odds Farm Park, has now become an aunty. The last time Middle White piglets were born at Odds Farm Park was two and a half years ago.

The Middle White Pig Breeders Club established in 1990 has as its Patron the well-known chef Antony Worrall Thompson whose enthusiasm for the breed has led him to breed his own Middle White pigs.

Odds Farm Park offers a great hands-on day out for the whole family and is located just of the M40 at Junction 2 and the closest farm park for those living in Berkshire, West London, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. Odds Farm Park and many other farm parks are members of the National Farm Attraction Network.
