There were many animals in the early seasons of the show, both pets and farm animals, that disappeared in later shows. During the first three seasons, Lisa Douglas had a pet terrier named Mignon (Mignon). It was never credited but appeared in 11 episodes through the beginning of Season 3. Mignon the dog also appeared in two episodes of Season 3 of Petticoat Junction (1963) (concurrent with Season 1 of "Green Acres") with the Douglases guest-starring. No mention was made of the dog after its last appearance, and its fate is unknown. Eb Dawson had a pet tortoise in one episode named Eloise, but it was never seen or mentioned after that either. Several of the farm's chickens were bought from Mr. Hane,y who gave them their names. Most frequently appearing were Alice the hen and Bertram the rooster, but there were also two other hens named Henrietta and Emily. All these chickens appeared only in early-season episodes, then disappeared and were never mentioned again. Lisa always got fresh eggs from them in those early episodes but in later episodes the eggs in the fridge were always store-bought in a carton, indicating the Douglas farm no longer had any chickens, but no explanation was given why. Eleanor, the Douglas' dairy cow, on the other hand, remained through all six seasons, always providing the milk.
