I'm very interested by the kinds of animals the people keep. I was just wondering what your most unusual pet was.
Over the years, as well as a host of farm animals, cats, dogs, rodents and rabbits I've also kept some more unusual animals as pets. These include snails (both common garden snails and giant African land snails), chameleons, crickets, African clawed toads, octopus (octopodes?), edible snails and quite a few lizards.
One of my most unusual was an edible dormouse, but that was more of a rescue than a pet. I've also kept woodlice as pets. Great for kids and easy to keep.
So I suppose I have a fair breadth of experience. But what about others here?
