This reminded me of something that happened once. A communications
tech was on a ladder, fixing a trip-wire on a fence next to the Miami
Metro Zoo. (not part of the Zoo) He was standing on the ground later,
and an escaped Llama from the Zoo accosted him. The slobber from the
Llama got his hair all wet. I saw Randy in another state years later
and we laughed about it!!!!!!

I'd have to read the contract but I think a llama is classified as
"livestock". If the HOA allowed it they could be opening a can of worms.
Next could be chickens and pigs.

This may be how llamas do their guarding. They slobber on intruders.

I'm not sure for certain. I am cautious of spitting cobras and camels
that slobber. Not to mention a giraffe with a 16" tongue.

I can't have Nigerian Dwarf Goats!

Maybe get Double Dwarf Goats and no one will see them.

Exactly why I won't live in an area with a HOA - I don't like having to
keep my worms in cans!

I live in an area of of our city that looks like any other suburb full
of detached single family homes, only we have horses and cows within
walking distance (the closest horses are only a 3 minute walk away). The
properties are grandfathered from the days when this was a farming
community.

A guard puma would be more effective.

We kept a horse in our backyard until the city made us rent a stable. It
wasn't long after that my father sold the horse. The flies were pretty bad
but I was the luckiest kid on the block for awhile.

Think about it. You used hillbillies and rules in the same sentence.
Have you ever know those two concepts to not be mutually exclusive? What
is the HOA gonna do, dictate what color the car up on blocks in the
front yard has to be, or how many dogs can be sleeping on the porch at once?

Well they could always say that the car on blocks has to be American
make and no more than one-dog on the porch can be a foo-foo non-hunting
dog.

a few honey look what I found items.
