It's official...I'm a murderer!

Have you ever had to kill an animal? Well I have, three times! For those of you who don't know, chickens only lay eggs for three years and then stop laying. So when they stop laying they are no use and we have to kill them. Well, my dad decided that he wanted me and Cody to kill our nine chickens as a "chore" which, really just means that he doesn't want to do it and wants to torture us. So, one boring summer day I trudged outside with gloves and a garbage bag to put the chickens in. After five minutes of chasing two chickens I carried them over to the car, started it, and held the garbage bag up to the exhaust pipe. When the bag fills up with  the carbon monoxide that's when the chickens start screaming and whaling around. This horrific sound last for ten of the longest seconds of my life! Then once they're dead I picked up the bag a threw it in the garbage. Then I walked back to the chicken coop to get my next victims. This time Cody  came with me and had a brilliant idea to throw them all in the bag so we would only have to do it one more time, so we put the remaining seven chickens in the bag and heaved it back over to the car. This time the chickens reacted a lot faster and the cackled was ten times as worse. Worst thing I've done in my life. So far.

I've also saved an animal's life even though some people (cough) Garren say I was trying to murder it. This story begins on a normal Saturday morning. I was mowing the lawn when I stopped it to ask Cody a question. While we were talking all the sudden we heard a very loud meow coming from the lawn mower. We paused, questioning what we heard and then sifted through the bag of grass and looked in the lawn mower top to bottom. When we found nothing we went back to work with no explanation of what happened. Then when I was dumping out the grass I heard another meow. I looked through the grass and found nothing, so I patted down the bag and found a secret compartment. There I found one of our little kittens Rosalind shaking in fear. If I wouldn't have found her she probably would have died. I'm a hero!

I've had TONS of pets. Here's a list of how many I've had in my life. I've had....
1 gerbal
2 fish
2 bunnies
3 dogs
15 cats
and 30 chickens. Not including all the snakes me and Cody used to catch. I think that's all. Pets can be fun but I've had so many that I think I'm good for a while. So, those are a few of my pets.


 

My pets!

This is one of my neighbors horses.

I have always wanted a horse! They are one of my favorite animals! They are amazing creatures! I have never had one though. Which makes me sad. :(

     My dad likes pets, but he dose not like them ruining his yard or his house.  Kyla and I begged him to let us get hamsters. We made a presentation and he decided to let us get one. We were so excited. We got 3 hamsters and 2 cages. We named them Vanilla, Pistachio, and Peanut Colada. We had 2 hamsters in one cage and the other hamster in the other cage. We had had our hamsters for a couple of months, when one morning we woke up and Peanut Colada was eating Vanilla! It was terrible. :( That was a horrible day! After that we had the 2 hamsters in different cages. Every night the wheels that they ran on would squeak and Kyla and I could not go to sleep. We decided to oil the wheels with olive oil. Not a good idea. We oiled it to much and the hamsters licked it all off and died! :( Next we got bunnies! They are so cute and are very playful. I have also want a dog, and a cat.

This is Kyla's bunny: Jasmine.

This is my bunny: Ebony.
