We rent, and here's what we can get away with:
Haflingers Nomad
Merlin
Lola
Appendix QU Diamond
BLM burro/ " pink donkey" Pinky
Standard donkey Brownie
Australian shepherds Tank
Poria
" jack/rat/queensland mixes" Oreo
Ratty
Stray black lab puppy Sheba
Barn Cats Silvie
Goldie
Poe
A large number of our animals were rescues at one point.
We are zoned for 4 chickens. lol! But Tank is not kind to chickens or rabbits, so we will not get any chickens until we own and can build a proper pen.
I would like to have goats again someday, and bees, when we own.

Haflingers- You can't have just one!

15 laying hens Miss Ivy, Sister Hattie Lou, Lady Red, Black Betty, Pete, Garden Helper, Ethel, Kiki, Buttercup, Sammy Six Guns, Trouble, Bob-r-Jack(we had two black ones that were identical, one died and we're still not sure whose left, so she gets both names!) and three more that we call the Little Girls. Hopefully today we will be getting five or six more when my hubby gets and we go to Tractor Supply!
2 white male Pekin ducks called The Dudes
1 female choclate lab Joie, she is going to be 10 years old this summer.
2 guinea pigs Edward and Jacob
15 turkey babies should be coming in any day now. They will all be named Dinner!

6 quarter horses
1 minuture horse
2 angus bred angus cows
5 dairy calves in training to become farm oxen
1 bred doe****hoping for a couple more dairy goats the pen is now ready**
2 rabbits
8 laying hens
12 baby chicks

I have 2 cow girls, almost 7 month old Roxie Lou and 20 month old Mazie Moo. Then Abby, Faith and Sadie Mae Belle, the Lamancha does and Sandy the Nubian. 3 dogs, Bubba, Sophie and Zoe. Sophie and Zoe are Rat Terriers and will be 13 in July. 6 cats. Soshe, Sybel, Gilbert, Cosmos, Alex and Andy Oakley. 19 hens, only one named. Hildi the Americana, because I can tell her apart from the others. And 2 roos, Jimmy Buffet, the Buff and Mr. Casanova, the game roo. Plus 4 stinkin' bucklings that will remain nameless because they all might be in the freezer in about 8 months. I am still impatiently waiting on Sandy to have hers. Any day now. That's all, folks.

We have 5 dogs, Jerico (wolfdog), Ifa (pit/queensland x), Pebbles (staff/bull terrier), Pickles(rat terrier) and Ruby(carin terrier), 3 house cats, YoYo, Whisper and Andy, too many barn cats to name, and 2 parakeets, Sherbert and Blue Boy. also 2 California Desert Tortisises, Tootsie and Lil Man. 6 New Zealand/Californian cross breeding does, they have numbers, and 2 cross bucks who are numbered also. I average 35 laying hens ( red sex links)and 2 roosters with them and no names, plus I raise 80 -100 meat chickens per year, 10-12 turkeys sometimes more and 4-6 geese and 4-6 ducks all for meat, so no names.

Have to laugh because I vowed I wouldnt own certain animals, since they end up owning me. So instead of six hens and two roosters we are fast on our way to dozens more (chicks). And then a friend encouraged me to get back into goats since I make so much cheese and soap from the milk, so alas two new Nubians. Am going to get a couple meat goats. Will be housing four lambs at a friends large property. Do my bee hives count? We have been a bee keeping family since long before I was born. I make so many Tasha Tudor style dipped candles. And am starting to use both the honey and wax in milk based lotions where I also use my home grown French lavander.

I don't have any farm animals, like in a yard or barn, but I do have ducks, alligators, egrets. Things like that that live in the lake behind my house. I do feed them. Do they count? LOL.
