Farmyard friends

Feed and pat the farmyard animals as you wander through the RACQ Insurance Animal Nursery

Bring your little ones to meet Ekka's adorable newborn animals. The RACQ Insurance Animal Nursery features about 400 baby farmyard animals for you to meet and greet.

Every day at Ekka you can watch tiny chicks hatch from their eggs.

All of your Show favourites will be here, including lambs, calves, chicks, ducklings, kids, and piglets, as well as turkeys, goats, and donkeys.

 

Shearing Shed

Watch the fleece fly as shearers demonstrate an industry that dates back to Australia's colonial days. You will be amazed by the skill of the shearers as they clip the sheep's fleeces with remarkable efficiency.

Also in the Shearing Shed, learn all about what happens to the fleeces after they've been shorn and the unique and beneficial natural properties of one of the oldest textile fibres known to humankind.
