I am fed up of people telling me how my dear little cuties will turn into terrorists as they get older, surely someone has a good tale of nice friendly chaps to offer me hope?  :-(


Does this look like the face of a terror

Cute though he is now, I reckon he/she will be in the pot after biting you in the way that only geese can bite ... serrated beak ... firm bite ... now TWIST!   Damn it hurts.

Gorgeous, absolutely Gorgeous.

Wish we had room for some, make good "guard dogs" aswell.

The ones at the park ain't tame so they do bite a bit  :lol:

Think you'll have to keep em away from your veggies !

Awww slowef....how preddy.  I think it depends on the breed of geese how friendly or vicious they can be also how much contact they have and are handled.

Looking to get a couple of geese myself shortly....Steinbacher geese...supposed to be  v friendly and tame.  :?

These have been hand reared then as far as I know they were a week old when I got them.

All the fuss and cuddles from visitors, my nieces especially should be good, I hope so I want the to be friendly not scary, they do look cute now when they see the dogs off,  racing across the floor at 2 labs a million times bigger than them!!  Won't be so much fun if I am the one they do it to when grown though :-(

Would the geese have done it?
