There isn't a bulk deal but rides may have bulk tickets themselves.

Safety Around AnimalsAlthough most show animals are domesticated, they can cause injury and should be treated with caution. The size and bulk of some animals can make them potentially dangerous. Please advise young children of the following: Do not make any sudden movements or loud noises. This may startle the animals. Do not poke or tease animals or imitate the sound an animal makes. Only touch animals if the owner is present and gives his or her permission to do so. Do not stand behind the animals. Quietly speak to the animal as you approach to avoid frightening the animal. Move slowly in single file when around animals. Cows can see nearly 360 degrees without moving their heads. A quick movement from behind is just as likely to frighten them as a movement from the front. Allow enough space between yourself and the animals to avoid being stepped on, kicked or bitten. Be extra careful around small newborn animals. Adult females are more aggressive when protecting their young. Touch animals gently. Do not push or shove. Very young children, particularly in prams, should not be moved close to an animal and the child should not be encouraged to pat. Wash hands thoroughly immediately after touching animals. Hand sanitiser and washing facilities are provided.
