Some animals of the farm :
 |
Gairin agus Leanbh - Goats Our goats are very friendly. They also provide milk for the house. We are presently experimenting with making goats cheese. Our first batch has been described as delicious by our hungry wwoofers, who also enjoyed caring for the goats, milking them in the early morning dew etc. |
| Na Mucha - Pigs Here we have a few right characters: We call the sow Britney because a great girl, called Britney, from Alaska brought two young sows home the very first night in a small cardboard box in the front of my old Nissan Primera. And now 'Britney' has had eleven beautiful multicolored little bonhams (piglets). |

 |
Na g-Cearc - Roddy is 'Cock of the roost' He and his wives Bridie and Maggie are presently working hard providing eggs for the house. Any surplus is used for hatching out new little baby chicks by one of our accomodating bantams clockers (hatching hens). |
| An t-Asal - Donkey Neidin is our latest arrival and boy, has he made a big impression! He is a right little character. Typical of the old type Irish donkey, complete with cross on his back and endearing temperament, despite being a full male. He could be the lead singer in the donkey choir. |
 |
 |
Na Lacha - Ducks These little ducklings are everyone's favourites. They quack noisely at feed time and make such a fantastic show at swim time. We have a mixture of Aylesbury, and Khaki Cambells and beautiful hybrids. The drake's name is Donal. |
| na Ge - Geese Geese are renowned as excellent ‘watchdogs’ and these are no exception. |
 |
 |
an mhaithir is a mhac - Horses Our mares and foals pictured here on the farm, are our pride and joy! Each year we look forward to the birth of the new arrivals. We are presently breeding mainly high quality show jumpers and eventers. We also have young horses, yearlings, and two and three year olds. And of course we are delighted that they all show promise. |
| Ar cara beag - Rabbits Our rabbits are always a favourite with young and old alike. Roger and Reenie are presently planning a family. |
 |
 |
ean ban gra - Doves Our doves fly freely around the farm. They are released for weddings and special occasions. |
