5 dumped geese- what kind? (pictures)

[DurhamDuck]

Edit: They weren't there, but it turns out those pictures are from last winter, not this winter so not surprising. Still, are these pure or mixed breed geese? (PS: I did see what I think was a Khaki Campbell drake, though- why do people get animals if they can't take care of them!?

)

-------

My grandfather likes to take photos and he got some of 5 domestic geese at a resevoir- along with Canada geese, swans, mallards, and sea gulls. Four of them look similiar- he said they look like ours (American Buffs) and they do look similiar, but I just don't know.

The other is mostly white with dark color on his back. I think someone dumped them- not able/willing to pay for them over the winter.

I'm going to go over there later today; hopefully they're still there. Meanwhile here's a picture (I have more, but the computer's slow so I'll upload them later). What do you guys think?

They are domesticated geese. Are you going to take them home?

Hi the greys look like Toulouse x African or Toulouse x Chinese as they appear to have a darker neck stripe. The Pied looks like a West of England Goose! At least they appear healthy and in good physical condition.

Thanks for the info

I hope someone took them in.

I hardly ever hear about anyone in my area owning geese. I wonder where they came from.

They're very cute
