Feathers, Fur, and Fins, Oh my! Museings of a procrastitrainer.

I am sitting here, thinking on the subject of training. I am practically obsessed with posititve reinforcement, and training. I have a dog, 7 birds,a bearded dragon,4 arachnids and now a koi. I actually bought a goldfish some ghost shrimp(to keep things clean)and a platinum ogan Koi.Forgot to feed him one night when I was late for work, and my phiance Jeremy picked me up and said "Silver went on a killing spree last night"

Seems "Silver(the Koi) decided he had a taste for shrimp dinners. With a lil goldfish belly on the side. That spurred me to research koi and I went on one of my learning sprees. Hence now I know the colour variety name of silver. Now even though my biggest reason for buying a fish was to train it, this started a need to know about takeing care of and appreciateing yet another speicies of critter in my pack.I now know that a koi can grow up to 3 feet, and 200 pounds. I think a bigger tank, or mayby a dolphin pool will be needed someday.But think about the shiny platinum 200 pound fish doing a jump on cue! If I could get a treat to him that is. Havent quite figured that one out, since he dosent like feeding at the surface.

I have to admit, I have a bad habit. I will sit reading about training my animals for hours, instead of doing the critter chores(Changing paper, walking dog)let alone do I actually get any training done. I am a very bad procrastinator.How do I train myself to get a Round-tuit? Yet even now i sit here and think"Can Jeremys new fiddler crabs be trained? They did take some food from my hand!" Aww better start training myself first. But where to start?
