    seriously though, do the quail & ducks serve a purpose such as eggs? or are they just for fun?

    what about the bunnies? are they just pets, or do they serve a purpose? (like eating them??)

    That's part of my mini dream, everyone has a purpose, such as to have milk goats too. Certainly can't happen in a neighborhood, but I can wait.
