These Epic Photos Of Kids And Barnyard Animals Will Make You Wish You Grew Up On A Farm
My wife and I both grew up on a farm and had fond memories of milking cows and goats, checking for eggs and feeding all of the farm animals. We couldn't imagine growing up any other way, so it was a no-brainer when we got married we wanted our kids to have the same experience.
We have absolutely no regrets of purchasing a little 10-acre family farm and continued living the country life with our three kids. My wife encouraged me to start taking our kids' photos and document their childhood memories on the farm.
After I started taking these family photos I really got into the art of photography. I started experimenting and teaching myself everything I could learn about photography. I love it, and I wanted to share some of those photo ideas of our kid's experiences with you!
If you would like to see more of my work, follow me on my website and social platforms.
I also teach what I've learned, so if you're interested in learning how to take photos like these, take my free course, you won't regret it, and you will have something to cherish for a lifetime!

Which one will he have to kill first? I mean, this is a farm, right? I assume they aren't raising a petting zoo.

There was a reason we didn't name the livestock. Having Bessie for dinner meant HAVING Bessie for dinner

Why does he keep offering rabbits (or rabbit - not sure if they're the same) to cows (or cow)? Is it a sacrificial offering? Just kidding; they're adorable.

Lol! I don't know. Every time he has his rabbit in the field with the cow, the cow gets curious and starts sniffing around and my son holds his bunny up for him to sniff. ;)

I'm afraid not.. They have been put in line. And they are scared, tucking their heads and limbs in more and more the closer they get to the kid. Turtles don't like to be handed or lifted in the shell.

Such a docile rooster - what breed? If my kids had tried that with our roosters when they were little, there would have been bloodshed!

If you're not paying attention, he comes up behind you and gives you a cow lick right on the back of the head! XD

It's a rite of passage...he must wander through the dark with only a lantern to guide his way, while the chickens chant from the shadows....JK this is an awesome photo!

I'm jealous that you have such a tame rooster. They're so pretty but always so mean (in my experience anyway)

How many rabbits do you own? What’s kind are they, because I’ve never seen a farm rabbit sit still long enough to take a picture of it.
Phillip Haumesser (Submission author) 7 years ago
We've had quite a few over the years. We don't have any right now. Most of the ones we had were albino.

nothing better for a child than growing up around animals and being "hands on"". Some of my most treasured childhood memories involve the animals in the fields beside my house. They didnt belong to me but I helped out with their care and welfare and it was a privelige.and a joy to be around them

I just hope that none of these animals were hurt while the photos were taken.
