Life on the Farm


In this section of Tropicana I am featuring just some of the animals that reside on the farm. You can discover and learn what life is like on the farm for pigs, cows, chickens, and also horses.

These animals have many different jobs they do on a daily bases like chickens give us eggs cows give us milk pigs give us pork and the horses are used as working animals.

Farm animals are not just working animals they can also be good pets. Horses. Horses are good pet because horses can live a long life. The life span of a horse is 20 -30 years. Most breeding horses die at a young age like 15 or 16. The horses that do sports like jumping or barrel racing or even racing like the Kentucky derby can get seriously hurt and could be put to sleep.     

Now for chickens. Chickens are domestic farm birds. These animals would be good pets too. The life span of the chicken is 10 – 15 years. The hen or female chickens has the job of laying eggs but the male or rooster also takes care of the eggs too. They do this to because this is how chickens breed. The rooster also is called alarm clocks. They are called this because early in the morning they crow over and over again. They are also called this because before technology a rooster was the wakeup call for farm hands to get up and start the day by feeding all the animals.      
Next is cows .Cows are animals that give milk. Cows also give us food called beef. Cows that are in groups are called cattle. Cows or cattle are vegetarians that eat crass trees and other veggies. These animals also have four stomach chambers that help break down there food. So if you ever see a cow laying down in afield chewing that means that there other stomach chambers are breaking down the food.

Now for chickens. Chickens are domestic farm birds. These animals would be good pets too. The life span of the chicken is 10 – 15 years. The hen or female chickens has the job of laying eggs but the male or rooster also takes care of the eggs too. They do this to because this is how chickens breed. The rooster also is called alarm clocks. They are called this because early in the morning they crow over and over again. They are also called this because before technology a rooster was the wakeup call for farm hands to get up and start the day by feeding all the animals.      
Next is my final animal the pig. This animal have a weird way of bathing they dig holes and tip there water buckets over in the hole. Then they roll around in the mud to get the bugs and dead skin off. These animals also give us food called bacon, ham, pork, chops, and ribs.
In conclusion this is all the jobs these animals do in this section of Tropicana speeches so now you go find a topic and write about it.
