Which animals live at the petting zoo?

Our animal family consists of: Horses, sheep, goats, rabbits, cats, dogs, pigs, cows and foxes (there are no foxes at the moment!). As well as various chicken breeds (such as Icelandic, German & Bramha) and broilers.

The variety of animals changes due to the different seasons. In spring and summer, the petting zoo is full of baby animals. Each year we add new animals.

May I pet the animals?

Under normal circumstances, those animals who want to be petted, may be petted. Some parts of the petting zoo (such as kittens and goats) can even be entered, and the animals may be held.

In restricted conditions, the animals may unfortunately not be touched.

We kindly ask you...

…to respect our rules to protect the animals. The rules petting zoo Daladýrð are: Guests are in second place. Our animals always come first and must be treated with respect – never with fear or noise.

May I feed the animals?

Please, do NOT feed the animals. For the following reasons: it creates tension between them, they start to fight and can hurt each other. Animals want to have things in order. Those animals that are not out to graze, have mealtimes twice a day.
If they are irregularly or constantly fed, they become restless because they are always waiting for food.

However, animals such as pigs and bottle lambs are fed around lunchtime and you are welcome to help to give them something to drink & eat.
