Fort Worth Petting Zoo

About Fort Worth Petting Zoo

Fort Worth Petting Zoo at the Stockyard Stables invites visitors to pet and feed friendly farm animals in an interactive setting. Guests encounter donkeys, sheep, and baby lambs during spring months, allowing hands-on contact with each animal. Feed cups are available for purchase at entry, enabling visitors to interact directly with the animals throughout their visit. The petting zoo operates seven days a week with published hours available on the venue's website. Children and adults of all ages can participate in this activity, making it accessible to families with younger children as well as older visitors. The experience centers on direct animal interaction rather than passive observation, as visitors move through the enclosures to touch and feed the resident animals. Located at the Fort Worth Stockyards, the petting zoo sits within a broader complex of western-themed attractions in Fort Worth, Texas.
