Congratulations @farmstead on winning a Special Award in the Homestead Happiness contest with this great post. Those geese are great!
Thanks so much!! :)
So cool! I have been hanging out with @vcelier all weekend!
(Also, Gucks in the first paragraph instead of ducks!)
Thanks for trying to catch a typo! But it was on purpose. I call my ducks and geese collectively "gucks". :) you did happen to miss my real typo of case instead of cause. ;) haha
It is always cool to meet like-minded people! Hard to meet people when you're rural. Haha thank goodness for internet!
Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate it!
interesting are these the type of geese some folks use as guard dogs ? thanks for sharing
I don't know what breed mine are, they're a mix. But I think any geese could be guard geese. Haha :)
Those geese are probably about as close as you'll ever get to a duck bill dinosaur... :-)
Their bills are pretty intimidating, that's for sure! Haha
That was a very cool post. Very cool to catch a glimpse of your day today. UpVote and Resteem from me, thl!
Thanks!! :) much appreciated!
I've always liked geese. They have a lot of personality. I haven't seen goose eggs at any market that I have been to, what do you raise them for?
P.S. Be sure to keep any down that you find, you can use or sell it later.
I got them out of curiousity mostly, haha, and for eggs. :) might try selling babies or something. I am supposed to have one male and two females. Haha
You know it is bad when you find more peace with your animals than you do are around other people. Have a great day!
I definitely prefer to stick with animals, that's for sure! Haha thanks for stopping by!
We have definitely experienced that with our ducks. Even the ones that we've had since a day old want nothing to do with us
I was hoping my ducks would imprint on me, maybe if I can get some hatching eggs it would work out that way. But I think it doesn't work so well if they have a "flock" to be in.
I don't know. I think you have to spend a lot of time with them. I
didn't want to do that because I knew the males were going to be butchered and I don't think I'm going to handle it well so the less attached I am the better!
That's my philosophy also. Haha
The geese are huge and so cute! They almost didn't look real. I love the noise they make for you. I would be yelling back at them all day long! Or at least until I lost my voice. :)
I do! Hahahah I yell with them/at them all the time. I try to mimic them. Haha. They think I'm weird, I'm sure!!
I bet they love it when you try to be one of them. :)
Such a nice post @farmstead! It always fill me with a feeling of awwwwe to see someone interact with animals (or even plants, or bugs) in a way that they appreciate it. What's even more, is to see them enjoy it the same way.
Reading these challenge posts is probably the best thing for a gloomy morning. They just brighten your day, even if the sun is hidden. Thank you for sharing! :-)
Wow, you have no idea how happy that makes me to hear something like this! Wow! I am so glad!
Yes, I will will be visiting you! I am really excited to spend more time with you! You are beautiful both inside and out!❤
Awe, thank you! Your donation will actually be going to chicken feed! Haha
Cool! I am good with that😊
Thank you for your entry @farmstead - I love the goose clip.
I'm really happy you enjoyed it! These guys make me smile, every day!
