Age:  4½

Role on the Farm: Swimming Coach and Lifeguard

Personality: People say I’m snappy and protective (but I’m really just a big softie at heart)

Likes: Floaties, aquatic exercise, the swimming telecasts at the Olympics, and Bondi Rescue

Dislikes:  Pond algae…it slows down my lap times, chlorine (turns my feathers green), and Frank’s four-wheeler (it always seems to end up drowning in my pond and I have to rescue it)

Age:  5

Role on the Farm: I take Farmer Frank when he herds the animals.

Personality: Frisky, easily spooked

Likes: Melbourne Cup, Dressage Competitions (nothing better than getting all dressed up), being groomed for hours, and I’m very partial to day spas

Dislikes:  split ends, saddle rash, long days in the sun (affects my hair highlights and gives me wrinkles), and flies (where’s the Mortein?)

Name:  Farmer Frank

Age: I’m 55, but that puppy is going to send me to an early grave.

Role on the Farm:  I’m supposed to grow and harvest the crops, look after the animals and maintain the property, but a lot of my day is spent chasing after Benny.

Personality:  Hard-working, good-natured, I think I have a sense of humour too (you really need one on this farm!)

Likes: I love my home-cooked meals and a smooth-running farm.

Dislikes: Naughty Blue Heeler puppies, and having to look for my quad bike (Oh, I think Benny just started up the engine! Grrrr)
