Does anyone on the forum have exotic or unconventional pets?

Kangaroo

Tiger

Vulture

Alpaca

Tarantula

Python

I’m looking at getting something new and different and leaning towards an ostrich for the eggs mainly so any advice is great.

Easy E · 6 December 2022, 10:51 AM

I have 3 small children, that’s kinda the same thing, right? Although, they’re not much into egg production.

Maxtor · 6 December 2022, 10:59 AM

Mini-Bull Terrier? Seems exotic in my neighbourhood!

Nickn · 6 December 2022, 11:06 AM

I had a spectacled cayman for many years bought as a hatchling she got to 5’ before I rehoused her due to downsizing
Very friendly believe it or not only showed aggression once when I couldnt get her out from under a bed a slipper defused the situation

Flying squirrels are pretty cool

enjoythemusic · 6 December 2022, 12:24 PM

Chewbacca has a python. (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

brandrea · 6 December 2022, 12:26 PM

I had a Wookiee once …

Moondoggy · 6 December 2022, 12:34 PM

My wife is pretty unconventional though not exotic.

wesdaniel · 6 December 2022, 02:52 PM

Not terribly exotic, but, a ~30-year-old maximilian Pionus named Jake.

ltmgeller · 6 December 2022, 03:03 PM

Ostrich is delicious

Not exotic (by australian standards) but we have a Blue Tonged Lizard and 5 ducks (as well as a more mainstream cat and dog)

The missus has also taken to hand feeding the wild Green Tree frogs that live in the Garden
There are 2 or 3 that show up on out back patio table every night expecting a feed of crickets or meal worms
They're usually gone by morning

Atone · 6 December 2022, 04:14 PM

Used to have all sorts of snakes in my 20’s. Pythons, Boas, rat and corn snakes. Love them reptiles.

330ci · 7 December 2022, 12:45 AM

A show quality Alpaca seems to be the perfect pet for a wook

904VT · 7 December 2022, 01:50 AM

I have a Chewbacca

knyshcollection · 7 December 2022, 02:07 AM

I’m not buying a farm. The Amish hate competition.

They have shows for most any animal out there

The top bloodlines of any species trade hands for pretty ridiculous numbers.

Theres sperm banks out there where you can buy genetics from dead race horses, show horses, prized bulls, race dogs, show dogs; you name it.

They have shows of the living bloodlines to compete and subsequently sell their breeding programs to people looking to get top tier genetics.

You're mainly paying for a bloodline when it comes to most animal purchases. And in the case of the world's most expensive alpaca($750k) I'm sure that guy brags about it like someone would an exotic sports car.

Or you spend a quarter mill on a failed breeding program like in the case of the gentleman I learned a bulk of the info I know about the industry from.

Mifune · 7 December 2022, 03:56 AM

I dont have one, but would want one...

MrGoat · 7 December 2022, 04:07 AM

Just for the record. Alpacas aren’t as mean as llamas. But they spit like llamas do.

If you see an alpaca or a llama with its ears back and it’s mean mugging you watch out, it’s about to spit on you.
