Meet Hunter...
When I let my chickens and 2 geese out, this is what he does... Sits at the door pecking at it as long as he thinks I'm inside. I go outside and he attacks me. I have tried to be the dominant goose but he keeps coming back for more. I have grabbed his neck and thrown him off the deck, hit him with a plastic pipe or shoe over his beak but nothing seems to back him down. Even my husband who's more forceful than I am can't get him to back down. His friend is a African brown goose that we raised from a gosling. Her (I think it's a girl but we haven't seen any nesting or eggs yet) buddies died over the summer so we wanted her to have a partner and found this goose in a local paper. He's about a year old. I know it's mating season but we can't even walk outside without getting attacked. Any suggestions????
