Millbrook's' Animals

Alpacas - We currently have 6 alpacas, the youngest was born May 2008. They are very friendly animals who will eat from your hand, although not let you touch them, and unlike lamas they do not spit at you. Alpacas are kept for wool as alpaca wool is one of the best that you can get. We sell Alpaca socks made from UK Alpaca Wool, so you can try for yourself!

Ducks - We have 5 indian runner ducks that stand tall and run in a group, they are great to watch. We also hatch and sell ducklings during the spring and summer months.

On our very large coarse fishing lake island we have some aylesburys, runner ducks, canadian geese and moorhens.

Chickens - We have 4 hens (no cockerels!) who are great layers all year round. We have a tradional devon red (resuced from the battery farm), a black cochin, a light sussex and a Welshsummer, They love to be fed; prawn crackers especially! They are completely free range and roam around Millbrook by day, at night they go to bed to be safe from Mr Fox. If you would like to taste real free range eggs, let us know and if we have any spare we can let you have some.

Dogs - We have 3 friendly mad labradors who love children and love playing. Ellie is 3 years old and Red is 5 years old and Charlie their son was born April 2007 (1 of 10 puppies)

Cats - We have a big mad fairly unsociable, dog chasing cat called Harry and, and ginger and white 2 year old called Millie and young stray called Willow.

Goats - We have saved 3 Billy goats (sorry no milk!)that we saved from the sausage machine and have given them a good home. They are great characters and love people - especially people with food!
