We have 6 chucks, 4 ducks (khaki Campbell's) and I'm really fancying some geese.  (trio)

will they all live happily together? They have a grassed, small orchard of around 300sq meters to live in.  Will this space be sufficient?

a lot of people say that geese can kill hens but I do know people mix them quite successfully. They will eat your grass very quickly and fertilize it in abundance.

I wouldn't say my geese and chickens lived happily together - certainly there were occasions when the geese would bully the chickens but generally they would keep out of each other's way. I think I wouldn't keep more than 3 geese in your small orchard.

One of my hens hatched a gosling. Some of the hens bullied him terribly for a couple of weeks after his "mum" stopped looking after him at about 8wks old. He never really mixed with them and was a lonely soul so we got him a companion, they all live happily together now. We do have them in a separate house at night despite the geese trying to squeeze in with the chickens in their coop each night, but during they daytime they all wander around doing their own thing.
