Linda, My son's father-in-law raises Dexters. very cute.Like a big dog. His are like mine,as far as named and petted from birth,so they are gentle. I've always had chickens for the eggs,Cyotes got my last few a couple months ago.I miss seeing them walking around free in the day. We closed them up at night. My husband missed one night and they were killed. Makes me mad they only took off with one after killing all of them (5)
