Pilgrim Geese

Pros: Easy going temperment, trainable and very pretty. Color sexing!
These are the sweetest geese I have had or met. Both the male and female are responding very well to verbal training. I am working with them on the words no, quiet, bedtime, and a few others. They took a bit to get idea of commands but once they understood, progress has been fast. They are healthy, alert and smart. I would put them at about the middle for goose breeds when it comes to noisy honking, but they are quite trainable so if you work with them getting them to be quieter over all is fairly easy. They do well with strangers if encouraged to behave and be calm and quiet. They are not mean and work well with my ducks but as with all goose breeds they need some watching and correcting as necessary for ideal behavior. They are a medium-ish size perhaps just a touch on the small side which can be nice in a mixed flock. So far I would say they are smarter and sweeter then the Embdens I have had and less noisy then the Toulouse I have had. The color sexing is so nice. No wondering if goslings or adults you have are the right gender mix. I would definitely recommend them.

Golden-300

Pros: Extremely good layers, very pretty, easy going personalities
Cons: Lots of poop
I really love my Golden 300s. They come from the hatchery with slight variations in coloring which is nice in a flock. For example I have some with speckled feet, some with dark feet and some with light feet. Some of the girls have different markings in the feathers such as one having a little white star on her chest and another with a white ring on the front of her neck. All are good natured in personality. The egg laying of these girls is amazing. I had one that laid for almost a year straight. Easily over 300 eggs and I provide very little extra light.

Question…I got two that were supposed to be golden 300s however one is all black with this beetle green sheen to her. Is this a color variant of this breed?
Pros: Very sweet and lays large eggs
Cons: Comes with the ability to poop
Very sweet and lays nice large white shelled eggs. Gets along with all the others in the flock.
