This week’s critter highlight is none other than our wonderful little sheep, Wooly Nelson! ✨

Wooly Nelson is a cute little Babydoll sheep! 💕Babydoll sheep are very small and are described to have a teddy bear like face. They are known for being extremely gentle and highly sought after as family pets and for 4-H. Fun fact, Babydoll sheep are commonly used in therapy programs due to their calm nature! How cute!!
Their average life span is 12-15 years and they also produce extremely high quality wool.

Want to come meet our absolutely adorable little sheep yourself!? Big Red’s Barn is open Thursday-Sunday 10:30am-5:30pm 💫

We just made our first $1,000 donation to the World Wildlife Fund 🌎

From day one, our goal has been more than just creating fun experiences; it’s been about building something that truly gives back to animals and conservation in a real way.

This is just the beginning. As we grow, so will our impact.

Thank you for supporting us and being part of something bigger 💚
