Oh gosh I love the photos of Missy guarding the chickens!

I love every animal but I'd have to pick birds! I am an avid bird watcher and I love that they live absolutely everywhere so there is always someone interesting to watch! I enjoy photographing them. I could never pick a favourite, but swallows would be one.

Lizards and snakes, definitely. And turtles. All reptiles actually haha. Also mantids, spiders, and doves. Fish are lovely too!

@mama_africa I've only been around chickens once or twice. Is it true what they say about them being very independent?

When it comes to domesticated animals- Dogs and horses! I was born a dog lover and have been enamoured with horses (And Donkeys and Mules and Ponies too!) since I had the pleasure of taking my very first horseback ride when I was five years old.

When it comes to wild animals- African Painted Dogs and the Black Footed Ferret! Both of which are sadly endangered, but are recovering somewhat thanks to conversation efforts.

I think my favorite animal would be a dead mole.
Well, I guess I'd like a whole pile of them better.

Horses, I love them so much <3,

Also interested in snakes, such interesting and misunderstood creatures. I want to get one as a pet.

Dogs, especially the ones I have. :)

I love birds and tortoises too. I had a tortoise but was stolen from our yard. I miss that fella. He never failed to make me smile.

Amphibians, particularly Frogs. I used to keep them as pets when I was a kid and even raised a batch from eggs. The mortality rate for the young is horrifying though, if a batch of eggs has even a few survive to adulthood it's considered good, especially since the Tadpoles will eat eachother.

I had one, Nagini, a royal python. She was probably the favorite out of my menagerie. She was the sweetest, gentlest thing, very friendly and outgoing. I miss her terribly... She had to be put down. A birth defect, the result of inbreeding, resulted in digestive and endocrine failure. Poor baby... She was so young.

My boyfriend and I will be selecting a snake together soon. I'll be sure to let you all know about it ;)

Fish, I honestly want to have a mini aquarium at home but I am not that sure where to start.

Reptiles tend to be awesome. I also like dogs a lot. And elephants. Basically everything but reptiles are the best.
