Igglepiggle Arrives At Odds Farm Park

Families on a day out to Odds Farm Park will love to meet new resident Igglepiggle pig, a Middle White Gilt who will be one year old in July! 

She comes from a breeder in Essex who shows Gloucestershire Old Spots, Tamworth and Middle White pigs at agricultural shows and one of her Gloucestershire Old Spot pigs won Supreme Champion at a show! Visitors on a day out can meet Igglepiggle at present in the Undercover Animal Barns.

Visitors on a day out will also be interested to learn that the Middle White can offer a unique breed characteristic – a short nose that makes it ideally suited for grazing, as opposed to rooting.  It is able to obtain a considerable part of its dietary requirements from grass alone, except in extreme weather conditions. The sow is an excellent, milk-yielding mother, being extremely caring of her young, yet generally placid and easy to handle.

Open from 10am to 5.30pm daily, as well as plenty of furry friends to meet, children on a day out can discover the NEW Giant Indoor Playbarn – a massive adventure play area with stacks of fun for all ages.  Combined with the outdoor Adventure Maze, Go-Karts, Log Play Areas and Crazy Golf, plus fun Tractor and Trailer Rides (Apr to Oct), there’s so much to do.  

Odds Farm Park is easily reached from Uxbridge, North London, Ealing, West London, Harrow, Slough and Maidenhead.  For more information, directions and prices visit the family days out website www.oddsfarm.co.uk
