Reese, how old are they there? I like the cleaner faces, and those are adorable!

They were still growing out. They were like 6 months old. My females are pretty clean faced. My males aren't too bad either.

Here's a pic of mine, they came from a black pied breeding also. They looked just like that when they were growing out.

I love the one on the right!! Do you sell eggs from these guys?

Mine all run together. I have pied in chocolate, lavender & black. I have chocolate and chocolate/lavender.

Wow, that's what she's going to look like? I'm psyched now. she's the sweetest one too. Notice how I keep saying "she". Positive thinking, that's how I sex them.

I do like the carunckling though. The more grotesque, the better for me. In males anyway. If the females are cleaner, I like it- more feminine.

I would totally go for the geese! They are so much more fun than chickens. They are much more interactive like a puppy!

Is it too late to change back?

Daze you horrible influence you!
I messaged her and told her if its not too late to change my mind than my final decision is the sebbie eggs.
My dh will be so happy. He was the one who originally wanted them to be "guard dogs" against our not so classy neighbors in the back.

That's why my fiance wants geese too.

Problem is I'm afraid to let them free-range since I have neighbors on 2 sides & roads on the other 2 sides. Maybe if we fence the yard I can let them roam.

Mwahahaha!!!

They are nice birds and do honk and hiss at strangers. Just be careful your not so nice neighbors don't be mean to them.

I wonder if geese will be nice for guard dogs for the ducks? Will eagles go near full grown geese?

Yeah, they are too precious to take chances with! You would need a fenced area (you could use movable stuff like the electric ones) and a coop/barn to lock them up at night.
