Talking to the Hereford Times earlier this week, Lewis Jones, who owns the park, said 11 lambs had been recently born.
"We've also got some baby pygmy goats," he said.
"We've moved the accommodation so all birthing has been inside in the warm and dry.
"We've been really busy this week with the Easter holidays starting."
As well as seeing the lambs and goats, there are several other animals that families can admire.
This a includes a variety of sheep and pigs, horses, donkeys, alpacas, guinea pigs, rabbits, tortoise, chickens, black swans, geese, pheasants and red squirrels.
The park is also renowned for housing some of the finest breeding collections of owls in Europe.
Some of the birds that are at the farm include burrowing owls, European scops owns, tropical screech owls and melanistic barn owls.
And while the weather this week has been fairly wet, you can still enjoy the warmth of the tea room that serves a wide range of food and drink, including a children's menu.
Admission is £12.50 for adults and £8 children, with under-2s going in for free.
A carer discount is also available for anyone who can provide proof of their role, for example a carer card.
