Hello all. I'm roach. I'm 19, I love to draw and I sometimes like to write stories. I own a small poultry farm in southern Oregon. I breed ducks (Topo, Daisy, Minnie, Pie, Munchies and Afflak) and geese (Ziggy, Zaggy, Zoom, Bob, Marley, Buddy and Indeca). I have a pair of Button Quail (Cosmo and Wanda) and 5 pigeons (Coby, Jitterbug, Vladdy, StreetRat and Trixie). Alos, I have a dozen chickens (Magnifico, Duchess, Anna Maria, Memphis, Darla, Dimples, Ramone and his 2 chicas, Touche, Goldie and Owlie), and 2 turkeys named SnowDrift and Cotton. I also have a goat named Shaena, 4 rabbits (Ralph, Alice, Willow and Whisper), 8 Peafowl (Jack-Jack, Sparrow, Pearl, Barbosa, Scarlett, Jazel, Tia and Dalma), some cats, a couple dogs, and a beautiful horse named Apache Music (or simply 'Nita^^). Into animals and drawing? E-mail me and we can chat.
