Overrun with beasties
When your John Deere can outrun some cars!

When someone is totally disgusted to shake your hand because you have dirt packed around fingernails or your hand smells like sweaty horses.

If you know all your chickens unique "balks"
If you know all the rooster calls!

When you know each animal by name, but yet you can't remember more than three human names

-you get dressed up (aka make sure you look nice) when going to the feed store.
-you spend a Saturday with your folks visiting feed stores to see who has the best plants and what critters they've got for sale and then spend hours at a newly opened Atwoods and LOVE it.
-you have no guilt in buying as many chicks you want from multiple places because it's that time to replace the layer flock and you only do it once every two years
-you love the long drives to pick up a new goat because the scenery is just beautiful
-you would love a job working outdoors
-half your closet shelf and one bathroom shelf is for the critter's medicinal and supplement supplies
-you don't mind mucking stalls, grooming, or feeding horses just to be around them
-you enjoy youtube videos about horse training or goat care
Honestly, I love the two and a half hour drive to my grandparents because that means it's vacation time for me!!

"you're willing to drive 8 hours to pick up a new animal, but you hate driving the 1 or so to visit friends/family" Guilty...
