Growing up we had horses, turkeys, ducks, chickens, rabbits, button quail and guinea pigs, along with cats and dogs.

The most entertaining by far were and are our chickens, but the horses came in a close second because we could ride them and interact with them more closely, of course. Ducks are very fun and amusing little critters as well. :)

We have quite an array of animals now .We raise reg.texas longhorn cattle,love to watch the antics of calves when young,We joke some have bedhead..One his hair on head always looks like he just got out of bed.
We have 2 tennesssee walker horses,2 miniature donkeys ,theyre funny.They try to sit on my lap,One pees the other pees,one rolls in dust the other does,
Chickens,swans,love to watch the young swans do what mom does.Watching them try to get food off the bottom of pond ,thier necks are only 2" long and thier body wants to stay afloat.
1 yellow lab,1 jack russell,shes precious so much energy,she owns the farm we just live here with her.

I have had ducks, rabbits and goats.
The rabbits were very cute, just too much work for me to really enjoy, good eating though
The ducks, I could sit and watch for hours. I love to watch them preen themselves.
the goats are a bit more involved, trimming hoofs, worming, mastitis, etc. But it is all well worth it, when mine had their first bunch of babies, I could have spent the night in the barn to keep watching them! They are sooooo cute and cudly. We use them for milking, and the boys, we band to wither and then butcher for meat when they are approx. one year old. If you time it right, you can have meat and milk all year round.

i have tried dogs, but none of them like my ducks for anything but chew toys.
