The father of Daisy's baby, Lil' Ben, in Barnyard is depicted with a nuanced family dynamic. While Otis serves as a significant and caring father figure to Lil' Ben, the baby's biological father is unnamed.
Lil' Ben's family details highlight this distinction:
Lil' Ben's Family Information
| Relationship | Name(s) |
|---|---|
| Mother | Daisy |
| Father | Otis (father figure), Unnamed biological father |
| Grandparent | Ben (grandfather) |
| Uncles | Pip, Freddy, Peck, Pig, Miles, Duke |
Daisy arrives at the barnyard already pregnant, and Otis takes on the role of a supportive and nurturing parent to her son, Lil' Ben. While Otis effectively becomes Lil' Ben's adoptive father, the identity of Lil' Ben's biological father is never revealed within the narrative and remains anonymous.
