Memphis Gatehouse Petting Zoo!!! :)

We are starting a petting zoo out here in Memphis! :) Let me introduce them to you...

Rose is Autumn's baby turtle. We don't know exactly what kind she is, or if she's a she. Joel caught her on our canoe trip Saturday and Stephen brought her home to Autumn. We don't know if we are going to keep her yet or not but until we find out she's a part of our zoo...



Cu-cu is Ayala's African Grey Parrot. His favorite thing to do is answer the phone. Whenever anybody's phone rings, he says, "Hello," then continues to be both voices in the conversation. 



Jessie is Gavin's Leopard Gecko. He got him for his ninth birthday this year at the beginning of May. He named her Jessie because he has been reading the Boxcar Children and Jessie was his favorite character in the book. 



Hammy is Micaiah's not so baby squirrel. Here is a picture of Hammy in the movie 'Over the Hedge' where Mic got the name from... 
Our Hammy pretty much looks the same right now! He gets really hungry right before feeding time and runs all around his cage 300 miles an hour! He loves his makeshift bottle!



Here is a picture of Hammy's cage Mic built him. He used the front piece of a broken fan as a door. :)


Ying and Yang are Rustie's rabbits. I won't say the purpose of why he has them but they can be added to our zoo for now. :)

I have to go help my mom juice right now. I will take more pics and upload them later.
