I had pet snapper turtles i kept in a tank in my room. Used to feed them baby mice and frogs... I could not keep up with feeding and cleaning up after them and eventually put them back out in a local pond.0

When I was really little my sister had a tiny crab she found at the beach. I have no clue how but that thing stayed alive for a whole year! lol My boyfriend had a pet kangaroo named Strawberry when he was a kid lol. No one believes him because they think he's just being a typical Australian trying to trick Americans into believing stupid stuff lol. It's true though, I've seen the pictures hahaha.0

Funny story, in case anyone thinks I ever had a heart... We were pretty young so my parents tried to play it off like they had just sold the pigs and coincidentally bought a whole bunch of pork chops and ham at the store. One night at dinner I piped up with, "Boy, Sally sure does taste great!"0 -
I grew up on a daily farm. Every season I would make friends with one calf and when it grew up it would be much nicer and calmer than the others lol I had one special calf though for 4H. Her name was Sweetie Pie and she had a twin named Sugar Plum... I loved those cows haha. My older sister also had a few lambs that were pretty cute.
In highschool I owned 3 Mongolian Gerbils, named McMurphy, the Cow and Attila the Hun lol0 -

My boys (age 3 & 1) have a Rabbit, leopard gecko, 2 ball pythons, bearded dragon, rose hair tarantula & Asian forest scorpion.
I guess technically just the rabbit and gecko are 'theirs'..0 -
We had some weird pets:
Jackson Chameleons - Names Tito, Latoya, Bo, Michael and Ren and Stimpy. They lived in our Shower (in Hawaii) the "shower" had a screen roof, ficus tree, ferns, orchids, etc etc. They were happy.
Duck - Named Soupy.
Then various roosters, rats, mice, rabbits and fish.0 -
I had a couple of stick insects.0
-
I had a hermit crab named Kermit. I think it lasted a couple months. The mofo pinched me one time so I never handled it after that. One day it crawled out of it's shell, buried itself under the rocks and died. Couldn't find that mofo for a week until it started stankin' the place up.0

OMGLMAO....too funny, thank goodness I was not taking a drink of my water right then....it would have shot though my nose! We never raised those but I'm sure those would have been the names we picked out.
We also named our other cows and pigs. Susy, Larry, Moe, Curly Joe, Bonnie & Clyde. The chickens we never bothered with. You just had to yell "here chicky, chicky" and they all came running.0 -
I lived on a farm ive had;
Dog, cat, sheep, goats, cows, jackson chameleons, lovebirds, finches, mountain horned lizard, fish, turtle, tortoise, mice, cardinal, myna bird, horse, bunnies, hamster, ferrets…
Not all at the same time. WHY did my parents let me always get a new animal when I OBVIOUSLY couldn’t care for them… (always forgot water or food for the little critters =/..) Once I turned 14 I learned how to care for pets, and haven’t killed one being irresponsible since..
I'm a horrid person.0 -

My lambs that I raised were ; Lambchops, Bailey, Vodka, Sugar, Spice, JimmyD..... I was 11-14yr old..0
