Run some fish line back and forth with the fence if you can and hang some ribbons on it to scare off the hawk , That hawk will not move on now that it s got chicken to eat, or put up a scare crow, stuff that moves a lot,

Geese usually lay 1 egg every other day , not daily ? so if you get a egg every day them both are laying, yes they will use the same nest

Yes they will set, Also when baby s hatch the male will look after them, while the F set for the rest to hatch, wonderful pair of parents, now don t try and pick up a baby you will be attack for sure, nothing touches there baby s LOL

Sound s like a male to me , When he mounts and get s off if your fast enough look to see if he s got a penis , it takes a sec to put back in, . If you put a goose with hens they will keep them safe from Arial birds or raccoons or any pest, Guard geese are wonderful to have

They are acting like normal geese, sound like you got a M & F , on the size, When you see them mount one day you will know for sure , Geese are the top dog in the yard, and they don t let any forget that ,

I don t have dogs or cat s , just hens and geese, Geese make the best pets and keep bad people out of the yard, as most people are scared of geese, And they let you know when some one comes around, I eat her eggs in the spring when she lay s around 35 to 50 eggs, each year, So far he s a dud...

I Have had geese for 30 or more years, One Chinese goose live for 19 1/2 years , was wonderful Had 1/4 acre to walk around was only pen in the last years of his life at night due to raccoons , before that he chased every thing else off, Loved kids and lady s hate men, would chase them off the...

I raised a goose from new born on my acre he passed away at 19 1/2 years Never hurt a child , Now I have a pair of Chinese I hatched and I love them, I do lock them up in a wire pen at night due to many raccons , but they roam free all day keeps the grass cut , I don t own dogs or cats, and...

My hen lived 11 years and was still laying a egg , Till my goose killed her,

I made a swing for mine and they love it , 8 " wide , When they were a month old and could get on it,

If they are in closed at night they will be fine, Wild birds make it thru so will hens, just as long as they are not getting wet, You can hang a lite blub for a little heat but that s not good as when it s day time they don t sit under the heat they run around and look for bugs and food, Been...

I cut the fat off chicken , pork or what ever and feed it to them, rolled oats in yogurt, bread, Mine also free range, all day, on a acre so get bugs and worms, They jump up and ate my grapes from the vine. Chicken s eat almost every thing, mine get there grains also, and oyster shells,

Raccoons usually also go for the belly looking for eggs,I m sure it was a large family of Raccoons, Weasel don t run in large family groups . Sad it happen to me once , took the kids to a Show got home to lock up and all Ducks dead .

The best and only way is to get 1 or 2 cats
