Info about animal care!! I'm moving onto a ranch with my hubby as a caretaker…?

The stock includes: 8 emus, 3 ostriches, 18 goats, 2 zebras, 5 llamas, 7 miniature horses, 4 full size horses, 5 mini burros, a donkey, a pot-bellied pig, and a family of fallow ("canadian spotted") deer. I will have a feeding schedule already in place, along with monthly vet visits, and I know basic handling of the animals. I need advice as to how to keep them busy and their minds stimulated (eg, toys, games etc.), as their current care is VERY basic. I am planning to take riding and care lessons for horses when we move there, but I would love any hints and personal experience advice!
Thanks, FFfred, that’s kinda the whole point ; )
