Asked a simple question about nicknames.....what are specks...wavies..laughing geese..dry-nosed goose...Indian goose....Eagle head....wart-nosed goose.....honkers (should be very easy)...goose nicknames.....give me the Genus and Species names so I know what you are really talking about ...

Can my geese have babys

Yes your geese can have babies. African geese were created by breeding chinese geese with toulouse geese.
I have mixes of chinese and roman tufted, not quite the same but close enough, just some proof that they can and will cross breed.

For anyone who wants to have a pop at the way people speak a second language, I can tell you that speaking a foreign language can be an amusing experience. I´ve learned French and Portuguese, but I say things wrong sometimes and get my friends laughing.
I have a Belgian friend here in Brazil whose mother tongue is Flemmish! He also speaks dutch, german, french and English (not perfectly) and is now trying to learn Portuguese. He says some funny things in English..... In portuguese, "finger" and "toe" is the same, so when a Brazilian tells you her shoes are rubbing her fingers, you wonder for a bit.....

Serv, sometimes you say funny things, makes me laugh for one, but well done...you don´t do at all badly! And you have some interesting observations.

I thought Servpolice to be a male in his 30s-40s from the Netherlands (who now lives in Ireland) and most likely his primary language is not English. He also seems to have considerable knowledge and experience with geese.

How did you work him out to be a guy?! He talks too much for a guy! And he loves goslings! My!

His earlier posts came across masculine?

Seriously, Serv reminds me of an old and dear friend of mine from the Netherlands (who can also be a chatty Cathy). My friend speaks English better than he writes and he also gets me giggling at how he translates words. When I saw Serv's pink-toed comment and googled... pink-footed geese from the Netherlands came up in results, so I assumed Serv meant pink-footed and it was a translation thing.
