Farm Visits

Last Sunday, Mummy took me to visit some farms as our Pastorate at church organised it. I had a lot of fun even though it was very, very hot on that day. I guess all the prayers about sunny weather and no rain worked too well.

First we went to Hay Dairies, a goat farm to see how goats were milked.




Naturally, I was fascinated with the goats. It wasn't the first time I saw goats but it was the first time I saw how they are milked.









The goats are milked in batches by machine. These goats are all imported from the USA and they are not the normal goats that end up being soup kambing. If you wanna eat them, the meat costs $55 per kg! Anyway, they are not eaten in Singapore.







We tried feeding the baby goats, called kids. Hey, isn't that what they call me too? I'm a human kid!





Because I'm so tiny, I keep getting blocked by all the adults around me. But I enjoyed myself and was not afraid of the goats. I even tried to pull hay from their mouths. Mummy said they will bite me cos I was snatching food from them.





We also went to visit a dragonfruit farm that was next to the goat farm. I never realise that dragonfruit grew of cactus-like plants. I think you don't either right?








Here's a young dragonfruit.











A ripe dragonfruit.











I never liked dragonfruit because daddy always use them to bully me at NTUC. Here is me trying to get away from the fruit.



After lunch, we went to Qianhu Fish Farm so that I can try my hand at longkang fishing.
I tried very hard to catch some fishes but they swim very fast. In the end, Uncle David and Jonathon helped me to catch the fishes.
I thought it was easier to catch them from my tank. I got to bring home the tank full of fishes at the end of the day. Unfortunately, only 1 fish is still alive today.
Mummy got to do the fish spa where the doctor fishes get to eat the dead skin off her feet. It is supposed to be therapeutic.
