    The African and Chinese goose thread!!

    So glad to read about geese hatching out ducklings. I have an unbonded brown Chinese who I could not break her broodiness. So I have her what she wanted... Eggs.

    I love their eggs... Beautiful eggs. I have 6 "mutts" myself. But the pure breeds are so much more attractive looking.

    It is amazing to me how beautiful pure breeds are, nothing like the mutt EE breeds you get from the hatcheries or feed stores. I especially love the blue ones. Great job everyone!
