💬 What Visitors Say
- Call ahead to book your visit — Peggy often accommodates same-day requests even outside regular booking hours (2:00-5:30 PM weekdays). Phone: 520-678-5371. Owner is flexible and will come out to give tours if available.
- Plan extra time for Peggy's personalized tours — she is knowledgeable about bird species and peacock color varieties and takes time to explain details about each animal. This is not a self-guided experience, so allow 1-2 hours.
- You'll have interactive hands-on opportunities to feed sheep and pet emus/birds if timing works out. Come prepared for close animal contact and bring any hand-washing supplies if needed, as this is a petting zoo experience.
- Mention specific animals you want to see when booking — visitors have spotted tortoises, kangaroos, and multiple peacock color varieties. Asking about peacock tail displays or specific animals helps Peggy plan the best tour experience for your group.
- This is a hidden gem best suited for small groups or families who love animals and prefer intimate, personalized experiences over large attractions. Ideal for special occasions — birthday party and field trip packages available by appointment.
