This was a small zoo, but worth the price. It has a nice variety of animals to look at and the landscaping is gorgeous. It was a quick stop with family, and they had a fun time. Full review by sarahpH2526QZ

This is a very smsll family owned zoo, so there isn't a huge variety of animals to see. But the grounds are beautiful and well maintained, and the animals appeared healthy and happy. Bring a picnic. … Full review by VanEsq12
What are the hours Sunday to Saturday? And are there any price differences on certain days? & are there food vendors or do we need to bring our own food?

Get there early if you want to feed the giraffes. Food for the giraffes cost a dollar per piece. You can pre-pay for the food when you get your tickets. If you do not pre-pay you need to have cash for the giraffe food. The food for the goats is in a machine that takes quarters. A roll of quarters should be enough. Pack a lunch there's plenty of places to eat and very nice park.
There is really no specific feeding times for the Giraffes. Everything is really laid back at the Frank Buck Zoo so you can just do what and see what you want. Brian
