You do realize when I read that the Benny Hill theme was running my my mind... It's hilarious to me but probably not to you or your mom at the time. Wow. Yours really ARE feisty. Is Snow one of the Africans or the Chinese? I thought my buffs were bad, they don't chase anyone unless there's a baby or a nest nearby. I'm starting to think I have things easy!
Someone earlier mentioned that Snow was young? I did have to laugh, my geese aren't particularly fertile so right now I have ONE gosling hatched from a mating pair. I caught that tiny little thing trying to snakeneck a full sized goose - because mom and dad were. Evidently they learn quick from their parents! (the target gander was just confused by this little lemon on legs trying to intimidate it and just wandered off)
Snow is a white Chinese gander who is 17 weeks old. But he has a very high opnion of himself and has already started "practice" mating as well as defending the entire goose flock. He is a handful to anyone but me, I'm the only one who he gives way too! And he is teaching the behavior to some of the younger geese as well, which will make for more episodes of Benny Hill in my yard . (I had the same mental image about an hour after that goose chasing episode when my kids told me how it looked to them!
) I am actually glad to remember that today. We had to put 1 of our cats to sleep today and we are all devastated to lose ShadowKat.
