Jo-Don Farms, Incorporated offers three types of petting zoos, all offering a variety of friendly, healthy animals.

Jo-Don Farms, Incorporated is proud to say that we have been in business for over 31 years and have not yet had any issue with any disease passed from our animals to our patrons.

Feed machines are placed at all of our petting zoos from which patrons can purchase a handful of feed for 50 cents. Many of our customers that have not wanted patrons to pay for feed have decided to hand out a certain number of quarters to each child in attendance. Waterless hand sanitizer is placed at all of our petting zoos with signs explaining that it is a good idea to also wash your hands with soap and clean running water.		Our most popular Option is our 10 species No-Gate Mini-Zoo. By no-gate we mean that patrons will pet and feed the animals through the fence rather than actually entering the zoo area. This Mini-Zoo takes an area approximately 20'x 20', is surrounded by our steel fencing and comes with one handler to interact with patrons, care for the animals and keep the area clean and as odor free as possible.
Included in the No-Gate Mini Zoo are 14 to 16 assorted goats and sheep, a burro or an exotic cow, 1 llama or alpaca, assorted poultry, and a pot-bellied pig (when available).		Great for earning back some of your costs is our 20-species Gated Petting Zoo. By gated we mean that the patrons can actually enter the petting zoo area to interact with, pet, and feed the animals. This petting zoo takes approximately 20'x 60', is surrounded by our steel fencing with one entrance/exit gate.
The 20-species Gated Petting Zoo comes with two handlers to collect admission tickets if necessary, interact with patrons, care for the animals and keep the area clean and as odor free as possible. Included with this petting zoo is 16 to 18 assorted goats and sheep, either a donkey or exotic cow, 1 llama or alpaca, assorted poultry, macaw, and small caged exotic (porcupine,coati-mundi, lemur,ect.).		In the Gated Petting Zoo, a short fence is placed at one end to keep the hoofed animals contained but yet allow patrons to pet and feed them. This also allows the smaller animals to get away from the public if they are being harassed (Animal Rights Fence). The small caged exotic is placed behind this fence, just out of reach so they can be observed and not touched.
