How many are you responsible for?
Seeing Shanzone's post about critter names, got me to thinking about how many of us are responsible for the well being of other lives. I'm not talking children her, but rather, dogs, cats, chickens, horses, goats, rabbits, you name it. I think it might be interesting to keep a running tab. I'll start by saying I'm responsible for 3. If the next person is responsible for let's say seven they state 7 but then add it to the previous total for a new total 10. You may use calculators! Bet the number gets up there. Those into aquaculture and raising fish...give your best estimate. I'll start: 3 + 0 (previous) for a total of 3

15, not including fish tanks. Including fish tanks I'll go 30.
3 dogs, 1 cat, 1 rabbit, 1 bird, 1 leopard gecko, 3 goats and 1 sheep, 3 horses and 1 pony. Plus fish...about 15 maybe??

We'll go for 46.

I think that makes the total 110 so far.
Adding my 10 chickens, 3 steers, 8 sheep to the mix
makes 131
Is that how you wanted this done?
OOps 22 chicks -
so 153

That's how I understood it also, Callieslamb. So with my 10 chickens it makes it 163.
PS. thanks for doing the math!

5 Nigerian Dwarf goaties, 9 chickens, 4 dogs, + 1 cat who is sure she is the priority above all here = 19 for now. 7 more pullets on the way in April. That will bring us to 26.
