You have 20 chickens??? So, do you keep those chickens around so people can't tell if the poopy smell is you or the chickens??
We have one very wonderful, sweet gray cat. His name is Sherman. He's a LOVER!

An early morning herd of Elk that pass through (they are majestic), a wild mare and her colt that we've been leaving oats out for, numerous coyotes, and zillions of bunnies. Well ... they're not ours ... but they're friends.

We've got a crazy greyhound that we rescued - she used to be a racer. Her name is Sadie and she's the most affectionate (and oddest) dog I've ever seen!

FISH!! The zebra danios look like zebra stripped fish. And my beloved froggy - he is only as big as 1/2 my thumb and lives with the fish. We don't have other pets as the DH is allergic.

COOL! I've never been fond of fish as pets for myself, but I think they are beautiful! I loved cats....until my husband and I met...he is highly allergic to cats...and I'm mildly allergic to dogs...so our dogs we have now are outside dogs...although they are really pampered with their own room and freedom to go in and out of that room as they please into either the garage or a large fenced kennel. When we are home, they are allowed to run around our 1 acre yard.

Heh ya we love our goldens.We were going to adopt one from a guy my brother knew.The dog had been close with his owner but his owner had died,then the parents had him and couldn't keep him so we agreed to take him.When we saw him he had lost all his hair due to stress and within five min,he bit my hubby! Unfortunately for the dog ,he went back. Then we were going to adopt a friends golden cause we were already babysitting her every weekend but when we moved to our new home, the previous owners had two goldens they couldn't take with them so....we now have Jessie and Maggie.Sisters and the best darn dogs I've ever seen!Smart.Too smart! We even thought about getting a puppy but man I have enough animals to take care of!When these two are gone, we are deffinately getting another golden. Do you live in the country?So you can have chickens?

Up till last year I had 3 horses, 1 bichipoo, 3 cats, 1 huge salamander, 1 goldfish, and 2 hamsters. Due to unforseen circumstances we had to relocate to WA for 6 months so I had to find new homes for my babies, except the hamster one died but the other one we still have she made the whole trip up and back from AZ to WA. My horses are another story I sold my older daughters horse because she went off to school, my youngest daughter's horse passed away, and my best buddy I had to put down due to cancer and tumors that were spreading very rapidly. I have been so lonely without him it was one of the hardest things I,ve ever had to do. His name was PC that's why I call myself pcrider. It has nothing to do with a computer, but I like to remember him and all the cool things and all the fun we used to have.

pcrider....I wondered about your name. Wonderful story about it. Sorry you lost your best buddy. It's always hard to lose a pet that we become so close to. What is a bichipoo?

A bichipoo is a cross between a bichon frise and a poodle. His name was Curly as befitting with white curly fur, but they don't shed. He was actually a stray that ended up on my doorstep all matted and dirty, I really hated to let him go but because of our sudden move I couldn't take him, but he went to a wonderful home.
