Petting zoo in Westminster, Maryland

Nestled in the picturesque town of Westminster, Maryland, Baugher's Petting Zoo offers a delightful and educational experience for all ages. Established in the late 1980s, our zoo began with just a few animals and has since grown into a beloved local attraction, featuring a diverse array of farmyard livestock and exotic animal friends.Animal Encounters: At Baugher's Petting Zoo, visitors can enjoy close-up interactions with our friendly residents. Our animal family includes donkeys, chickens, lambs, pigs, turkeys, ducks, cows, rabbits, peacocks, emus, guinea fowl, and a large number of playful goats—our personal favorites! Guests can walk right into the zoo and be greeted by our animals, who are always eager for attention and treats.Feeding the Animals: For those who wish to feed our animals, we have conveniently placed coin-operated food machines throughout the zoo. Additionally, bags of animal food can be purchased at our Orchard Market, located just up the hill from the zoo.Zoo Enhancements:
