Feed a Kiwi for a month

During their time at the National Kiwi Hatchery, the kiwi chicks eat a special blend of food designed for them by the experts at Massey University. We prepare the food and weigh out the correct amount of food for each chick each day.

Step ‘behind the glass’ for an exclusive, close-up experience as you join the hatchery team in a staff-only area of our state-of-the-art kiwi hatching facility.

Limited to no more than 6 guests at a time, watch on as our Kiwi Keepers complete the daily healthcare check on a kiwi chick and enjoy the opportunity to have your photo with the chick (pending health check results). You’ll also have chance to spot foraging Kiwi in our purpose-built nocturnal house and discover the secrets of the Kiwi in our interactive displays.

100% of your ticket goes back to the kiwi hatching programme.
