My name is Rosalie Reed. I run Reed's Family Zoo. My husband and I live on 20 acres in Kentucky. We have no children, just 52 animals. The property is tucked in the country and surrounded by the forest. We are always in the company of wildlife. We have a very large vegetable garden and many fruit trees and berry bushes. The property also has 2 ponds, but I bet most people want to hear about all the critters.

Well, we have animals of all kinds. Many outside and many inside. Inside our country style farm house, you'll find our reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. We have lizards of all sizes, large snakes, many frogs, and both aquatic turtles and land tortoises. Inside, there is also a chinchilla, 2 hedgehogs, a blue McCaw, and 2 dogs.

Outside we have chickens and quail. We also have ducks and catfish. There are goats and pigs. One stubborn donkey and one beautiful African serval.

My husband is a carpenter, so all the enclosures, pens, coops, and fences inside and outside are custom built.

So much happens here at Reed's Family Zoo on a daily basis, I just would love to share the stories.

I am going to start with each animal category just to try and introduce everyone. Then I can tell you all the funny, heart-warming, mind blowing, and scary moments that make up my usual day.
