Lazy 5 Ranch





Wednesday we went to the Lazy 5 Ranch. It's about an hour away, near Charlotte. You can see over 750 animals from 6 continents. And wow, we did see a lot. We couldn't feed the zebras, african cattle, asian donkeys, or white rhinoceros, since these were too dangerous, but we did feed ostriches, emus, and rheas, antelopes and elands, llamas, sheep, goats, pigs, camels, deer, water buffalo, yaks, bison, and giraffes, to name a few.


The yaks, bison, and water buffalo were my favorite. They just walk over, open their mouths, stick out their tongues, and you just dump the food in. Chace really enjoyed feeding them, especially feeding the giraffe. Predictably, Alana was bored with feeding the animals after the first 50 or so, and spent the rest of the ride stealing feed from others buckets into hers. She's hard to impress.
