Spring has sprung at noah's ark zoo farm
25th Jan 2024
In a joyful early celebration of spring, we are delighted to announce the birth of newborn Dorset lambs, signalling the onset of lambing season.
Dorset lambs, renowned for their distinctive appearance with a white woolly coat and alert, friendly demeanour, have arrived at Noah's Ark. This particular breed is celebrated for its adaptability to various climates and its high-quality, fine-textured wool. As the unmistakable signs of spring begin to unfold, these newborns bring the excitement of new life to the Zoo!
Eleanor Steeds, our Farm Section Leader said, ‘The farm barn has once again come alive with the playful antics of these adorable additions. We’ve named our first trio of lambs Bounty, Bon Bon and Lollipop!’
Eleanor continued, ‘Dorset sheep are unique in that they are not seasonal breeders so can lamb at any time of the year. They are a great breed for our first lambs of the season and give us something to focus on as the new year begins.’
These newborn lambs find their footing in the Zoo as we say hello to a new season. We are encouraging visitors to drop in and say hello to our charming new additions.
