Check their Facebook page first to make a reservation for a tour before going! I can only imagine…read morehow hard it'd be for one to drive past and see the AWWW GOATS!! and not want to pull in; however, to visit the Hand Me Down Zoo, one needs an appointment ... and it's totally worth every cent! :) Kerry, who owns the property, is like a Mom to these animals that she rescues, protects, cares for, fosters, and educates visitors about. She is clearly passionate about what she does, and her efforts should be greatly appreciated. Hand Me Down Zoo gives a home to unwanted animals including exotics too, and she let us know which of her animal friends were available, and if you follow their Facebook page, you can get updates on new critters and creatures. She started our tour promptly right after we met her spunky kangaroo (to our huge delight!), and began with a safety intro and background story. The full hour was super fun and informative, and ended with us having the opportunity to return to the goats out front. I can't say enough nice things about Kerry and what she's doing and the animals that we fell in love with.

Randomly looking at a map one day and this popped up. Of course I had to look into it. You need an…read moreappointment to visit. Well worth the fee they ask! You get a private tour ( with about 15 people ) and walk around the entire place. Holy cow, the animals she has there are amazing! We got the story on each one, some fun facts, and a whole slew of other information about laws, and behavior and animal food and why these animals came to the zoo. So informative! So eye opening. Please be aware that the walk through could be a bit rough for the elderly or someone that does not walk well. Kids MUST be well behaved in order not to scare animals. There is a small gift shop as well. I think you should visit. The whole thing was about 1.5 hours. Very worth the time and price.

My granddaughter gives it (10/10!)…read more I took my granddaughter (8 years old) to Color Sling for her belated birthday, and we had an absolutely exciting and fun time filled with creativity and laughter. I have to admit, it wasn't nearly as messy as I expected--they provided everything we needed and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. My granddaughter had a blast, and thanks to the wonderful employees, she gives this place 10 stars. And, said "We will definitely be back"!!! For me, it was the perfect stress-relief activity and such a great bonding experience. We went at noon, so it was peaceful and relaxed, which made it even better. The staff was incredibly attentive, giving clear instructions before and after our session. It was also nice to see that they offer event spaces for parties and gatherings. Highly recommend Color Sling for anyone looking for a unique, fun, and memorable experience

We had so much fun!!…read more My sisters and I wanted to do something to unwind and we definitely enjoyed ourselves here. Called in to make an appointment beforehand just to guarantee our spot. There are amazing group deals on their website as well as some more information about the business! Melissa, co-owner, was there the day we went in and she was so so welcoming. We were supplied ponchos and shoe coverings as well as lockers for our things and even hair nets and accessories. They thought of it all! Melissa explained everything to us and made sure we were comfortable before leaving us to our creativity. I absolutely loved the fact that we were always checked on as well as our paint and cleaning waters. Melissa would make encouraging comments I needed because I for one am not creative. LOL I absolutely cannot wait to drop by again and bring others because I definitely feel it's a very special little place. The vibe just gives and I'm so grateful to know a place like this exists.
