Well....I live in the country and although I do not live on a farm, I am completely surrounded by farms with cows, pigs, buffalos, horses, deer and goats. It's alot of fun because when we feel like it, we grab the boys, hop in the car and go for a tour. The deer can only be seen from a distance. There is one farm with hundreds of them. Totally adorable. The buffalo...well, I can't say I think they are adorable but...interesting. The rest, well, almost every farm around us have cows. One neighbor had a pig farm and a few years ago, he'd call and let us know when the 'piglets' were born. They are soooo cute.
Ask me about the smell in the country though in spring time (and fall) Trust me, I don't hang my clothes out! :LOL:

Oh no! Another shameless spam thread.
I am 25 or 26 on the list. I just looked but now I can't remember. I'm tired.
I love goats! I would like to have a few some day. Are they hard to take care of?

they are not so hard to take care of -- you just have to be careful of their diet. i was surprised that they are picky eaters. they love grass, but i would try to give them stuff like lettuce or carrots or some strawberries i had accidently left in my car on a warm day, but they didn't want them! i had always heard goats eat EVERYTHING (including tin cans), but pygmies must be different.
like any other animal they need to have stuff to play with to keep active. we built them this great pen with a giant spool with a ramp up to it and they loved to run up the ramp and jump off the spool. they try to climb everything! it's hilarious.
Ghys - i hear you on the country air in the spring! phwew! our hog lot was only about 30 yards from the house. i could never open the windows in the spring.

No spring time hanging of clothes going on down my way. I use my dryer!
Kellye, I am ashamed to say I have no idea what Whisker's is. She could be Robin's twin (SystemXpert posted some pictures).
She came to us as a stray and I never bothered looking into that.
hmmmmm....now I am starting to wonder. I'll check it out somewhere.

Peedoodle may know he's handsome, but it doesn't look like he likes his picture taken.

I was just reading this thread when I managed to misread this post.
For some reason I thought it said peedoodle has attacked this image.

Peedoodle came fully equipped with name, training and attitude.
Yup, he has that attitude when it comes to getting his picture taken - he hates the flash. But hes very loving when he wants to be, he has a sweet nature and we love him to bits.

ed thinks he owns the house, too. while we were painting, he would supervise with this look on his face like "good people. it is good for you to make my home nicer."
by the way, nice pig, kellye!
