NEW ARRIVALS FOR EMILY!
Congratulations and celebrations! An early Christmas present arrived for the Farmers at Odds Farm Park in the form of an adorable litter of piglets!
Born to mum Emily, a Gloucestershire Old Spot sow, the super cute new arrivals are Gloucestershire Old Spot cross Tamworth pigs and are settling in well to life on the farm! Visitors can meet them in the Undercover Animal Barns and will recognise them by their black spots and noisy oinks!
