Wow, simply beautiful. They have really grown.

How about some pics of yours @Sarkchick

I'll have to get some of Missy since I lost all my pics when my computer died.

I guess they don't grow out of some things.

Mine are 4 months old as of 8/5/17.and they follow us everywhere (on foot) and chatter away.
We adore them !
Have not gotten around to sexing each.
I planned on tying a colored ribbon loosely around each's neck, like a collar.
But they way they always nibble on things, I am not so sure it is a smart idea.

Four months ago !

This was at 3 months, and they are even fuller today, wings well develped and they can jump up and fly a little distance.
My SO says one day they will fly next to the car when we go to town, LOL

This is my 2 Toulouse girls, they are almost 5 months old.
The other 2 are 1/2 Toulouse/Brn Chinese. They are about 1 1/2 years old.
Pictures were taken last month

Did not know you had so many. They really fill up that pool. Bet it's even tighter now. Love the breed

I had to clip a wing on each of my girls a couple weeks ago. They were flying about 4-5 feet off the ground for about 20 feet. I was afraid they would fly into my dog yard. And my yard dogs do not like my fowl. Or I should say they like them too much.

I had the full order, 10 goslings.
I posted a paper at the grocery store that 5 would be available for sale............and got a response within hours.
It was hard to give half up...if I had had them a few more days, I would have kept them all.

They are a gentle breed I love the way the females have such a low voice. Missy my Toulouse talks to me.
