Peacocks

Peacocks, native to South Asia, are stunning birds full of color and personality! The Funny Farm is home to over 40 of these beauties, creating a lively atmosphere. Some have been raised from babies, adding to their charm. The males are especially eye-catching with their dazzling tail feathers, and during mating season, you might catch one dancing to impress the females—a delightful sight that truly brings the farm to life!

Beyond their beauty, peacocks have some of the loudest calls on the farm! Their distinctive sounds can travel far, making it hard to miss their performances. If you hear a peacock but can’t see one, look up! They love to roost high in the trees, where you might find them perched and enjoying the view.

Eeyore

Eeyore is our gentle giant who is in his 50’s. He will often greet you by rubbing his nose on your back side! He loves to be loved on and will stand there for hours while you pet him. Eeyore is a guest favorite and can be seen following visitors around the farm.

Billy

Billy came to the Funny Farm in April 2018. Laurie rescued him from auction at 4 weeks old to save him from slaughter. When Billy came to the farm, he lived in Laurie’s house where he was bottle fed until he was old enough to live with the other goats. Lucky for him a beautiful young girl named Lilly came to the farm one month after him and they became fast friends.

Cooper

Cooper came to the Funny Farm in 2005 and he is our most popular Alpaca! Cooper is approximately 19 years old and he loves to play. His antics can often be seen on our Funny Farm Facebook live show. Cooper was rescued from an imminent death because he had a curly tail. Breeders do not like Alpaca’s with curly tails because it often indicates they are sterile and will not be able to produce babies. Cooper loves sharing his enclosure with his best friend Yogi. You will often find him and Yogi playing together and greeting guests as they enter the farm.

Connor

Connor is our playful Emu that roams the Funny Farm. He came to the farm in July of 2021. He was a gift to Laurie from a farmer after he heard of the passing of Pinky our baby emu who had splay leg. Connor has grown up into quite the young man and can be seen running zoomies through the farm regularly. At speeds of up to 43 miles an hour, Connor puts on quite the show for visitors. Connor can also be seen showing off his signature dance moves and taking a bath in our duck pools around the farm.
