Wow! At your peak, you had quite the menagerie! I used to have pet rats and mice. I loved them dearly, but they passed away.

I've never seen chicks up close. That sounds like it was neat to be there for. Definitely sad that so many other critters made food of them.

I think it's excellent that you have horses. Someday, if I get a place in the country, I'd love to have a horse. Thanks lots for sharing info about your animals!
