My Smoky Mtn. Homestead

OK, so I don't really have a Homestead.
But I have ~~seven~~ four chickens.
Does that count for something?

A Quiz for you...

I just love quizzes and brain teasers. I thought I would share this one with you. NO CHEATING. Don't try to google the answer. Think it out on your own. Are you ready? Let's see who can get the correct answer before I post the solution. MUWHAAAAAA.. :-D

Don't ya just love me?! LOL

Ok. Here goes:

I have a farm, and you are my most trusted employee. It is time to go to the market to buy a fat pig...uh.. I mean it is time to go to the market to buy some livestock. I decided to send you to the market this year. You must buy at least one of each animal:

Sheep = .50/head

Cattle = $10/head

Hogs = $3/head

I give you $100 to spend, and you must bring home 100 animals. You must spend the $100, no more, no less. What do you buy?

You have to spend the whole $100. Can't go over or under...

Sorry I didn't clarify that.

I almost forgot to come see the answer. I'm curious, did you figure out the answer on your own? I got close; $91 and 100 animals. I love these kinda things.

I do have a question for you. I got a digital camera (free with printer). It's a hp photosmart 435. My question is, is the camera a chincy one or am I just REALLY bad at taking pictures? If it is my camera, do you know of a decent one that's not too pricy?

PS~Don't post the answer yet.
