    Our farm creatures are cows, horses, sheep, calves, turnkeys, geese, bantams, hens, chickens, ducks, cats, and a dog.
    The cows are kept in a byre, and the horses are kept in a stable. The sheep stay in fields, and the calves in a byre. The turkeys, and hens, and bantam's, stay in hen houses.
    The chickens live in a house, and the ducks, and geese in a duck house.
    The cats live in a barn and the dog in a shed.
