ducks? what other options

[PinkPalace]

i would like to get DD a pet,
Furry ones are out of the question.. and fish arent fun

wondering if you can keep ducks in a domestic yard?
what do you need to set up?

What about chickens? Then you can eat the eggs too! YUMMO! Don't know about where you live, but I looked on our local city councel website that had info about land size, and how many of what kind of animal you can keep - ie. the bigger the land, the more chickens you can own.

Is a guinea pig too furry?

lol - fur allergies here lol... i assume a guniea pig would be ok???

how much would you need to set up to care - anyone have these types of pets?

you would need an enclosed cage/run area for either a chicken/duck BUT do remember they area needs to be kept clean!!! or you will get RATS!!!!!!

PP what about a bunny??? rabbit 'fur' is actually non allergenic..it is the bunnies saliva that one would react to if they are going to react at all.

Katones - Rabbits are illegal in QLD :-( I really really want one and when DH told me they were illegal i thought it was just because he didnt want one - but have since found out he is right :-(

You can get dogs with 'hair' not fur. We have a maltese and he is 'non-alergenic'. i have a friend allergic to fur and she has a labradoodle and she is fine with him!
