Introduction


Our farm is home to many different type of animals. We are really considered an "exotic" farm as opposed to the farms which produce crops, raise beef or dairy cows.  Our farm consists of almost 200 acres and is home to Buffalo, Watusi Cattle, Horses,  BabyDoll Sheep, Pygmy Goats, Chinese Geese, Chickens and lots of cats and of course dogs!

We bale & put up our own hay, that is the only "crop" we do. This is more out of necessity than desire as the animals go through incredible amounts of hay over the winter months.

The buffalo are incredible animals, they are truly majestic.  The way they interact with each other is fascinating, they seem to speak their own language - a language I am learning to understand through quiet observation. 

Things are not always easy but they are always well worth it. I am a different person since living with all of these animals.  I look at life, and death, differently than I had in the past.  I've come to realize everything on this earth has a purpose.  I am always amazed at what I have learned the past 12 years and I can't wait to continue this wonderful and amazing journey.

    Hi again Lisa! I've just been looking back through your journal to see what kind of animals you have on your bison farm. Sounds like you have your hands full! I used to have a Chinese goose who thought I was his mum, he'd come indoors and follow me everywhere. I adore animals but now live in an apartment so I've only got my two Maine coon cats now. I think i'm going to really enjoy reading your journal! Jeannette xx  http://journals.aol.co.uk/jlocorriere05/Welcometomytravels

    Let me be the first one to say, I can't wait to hear more!  I just happened to catch your journal listed on the list of most recently updated on the Journals Main site. You wouldnt happen to live in Floyd County Ga would you?  That would truly be a coincidence! I will send you a few pictures and show you why! Look forward to more. :)
