I'm open to suggestions at the moment, I'm just trying to find something that can live in a large garden (very large Wink

) and that I can basically just leave to live 'wild'. I don't really want to fence them in (other than the perimeter of the garden Wink

)

So far only wallabies make the list.

Goats are probably the best thing you can get for clearing overgrown areas. They will eat anything, including brambles. Get yourself nanny and you could milk her if you had the time Laughing

Oooh wallabies I never thought of those. Cool

If it is that large you should build a theme park Laughing

get some pygmy goats. I suppose wallabies would be pretty cool though.

You can buy Rhea eggs on Ebay.. you probably have an incubator? would be fun to watch them grow.. they can be pretty wild as adults but if you rear them ( Wink

) they should be fine....

I worked on an alpaca farm a few years ago, I love 'em though I'm not sure how great they are as a pet, rather than a stock animal....
depends how big the garden is really, I'd have thought goats would be better.
though you do get lovely wool from alpaca, it's worth a fair bit too Very Happy

wallabies, alpacas quite freindly both can get quite tame what about reindeer (good for marketing at christmas Laughing

) emu could get aggressive and peck your face whilst your trying to feed them lol (first hand experience Laughing

)
