Our farm animals aren't just part of the scenery - they're the heart of the Higgs Homestead experience. Each has their own personality and story, and they love meeting new friends.
All animal interactions are facilitated by our on-site owners to ensure both guest and animal safety while creating memorable experiences.
Ginger - Our Highland Cow
Ginger is our gentle Highland cow who has become the unofficial mascot of the homestead. With her distinctive long bangs and calm demeanor, she's perfect for first-time farm visitors and experienced animal lovers alike.
Highland cattle are known for their docile nature and striking appearance. Ginger loves treats and attention, and her favorite spot is near the fence where she can greet guests. Those long bangs aren't just for looks - they protect her eyes from flies and weather.
Snickerdoodle - Our Spirited Mini Horse
Don't let his size fool you - Snickerdoodle has a personality bigger than most full-sized horses! He's incredibly social and loves being the center of attention, making him perfect for guests of all ages.
Mini horses are intelligent and affectionate, and Snickerdoodle exemplifies these traits perfectly. Did you know that mini horses can even be trained to be service animals? Their long lifespan and intelligence make them well suited for caring for their owners!
Our Free-Range Chickens
Our chickens roam freely during the day, providing natural pest control and the freshest eggs you've ever tasted. They're curious and friendly, often following guests around the property in hopes of discovering treats.
There's something magical about starting your morning with chickens pecking around outside your door. We're happy to share farm-fresh eggs with guests - just ask!
