We're only zoned for 8 hooves and there's one vigalant neighbor makes sure everyone is compliant.
I was just asking Mr. X earlier this morning if we could clicker train the goat to ride the horse. I just went out there, and Bad Horse had his face pressed up against the gate separating them. Evil Boy was out of his crate eating hay. He looked at me a little sideways when I leaned over the wall, but continued to eat while I stood over the pen and watched him. I was hoping that Bad Horse was just curious about Evil B. but, I suspect the hay just out of reach was the cause of the interest.
We do have a really amazing fox proof chicken coop. I think it has space for 12 if I really want to go chicken crazy. I was going to wait until spring if I'm still inspired. The guy that sold me the goat also sells chickens. I might just get some eggs and rent an egg hatcher from the feed store down the street. I think that would be kind of cool. Although, then you get roosters and hens.
The neighbor had a rooster for awhile and got rid of it because of it's crowing at all hours.
Oh yeah, I remember you saying the 8 hooves thing before....and I remember your dick neighbor.
Think long and hard about the chickens before getting them. We had them for a while (not here in Florida) and they were foul. And the rooster was meannnnn. I really try not to eat eggs and I never ate the eggs from the chickens. That stopped after I cracked one open and found a forming chicken fetus. Maybe you could get a few ducks instead?
