Heya all -
I went to the auction the other week, and got a pair of geese for a friend, but now he decided he doesn't want them, so they get to stay.
I was planning to wait to get geese, and to start with goslings, but these guys are winning me over. Today they warned the chickens and call ducks of a hawk (probably the same hawk that took my female blue call the other day
) I am down to two call ducks (out of 5) a khaki female and a blue drake. I do have eggs in the bator from both hens, though, so hopefully I can get another blue hen out of those.
anyway - I think these guys are embden mixed with brown chinese (no dark bills, though) the female is getting a slight bump just above her bill - the male has a more embden shaped body and face.
Oh yeah, I named them Benny and Joon.
