My wife and I created this profile to ask about our geese. We bought two geese, one Toulese and one White Chinese, which were inseparable and very protective of each other, both between 12-14 weeks old. We've been letting them out of our coop to do their own thing for a while now, and the first night I didn't lock the geese up, the next morning one was gone. The next day, we also lost one Great White Turkey (17weeks) and the day after one Araucauna chicken (20-22weeks), but the turkey was sick, and never left the coop cage(which was left open during the day), so something would of had to come INTO the cage to get the turkey at least. Both the chicken and the turkey were lost during the day.
We live on a ranch in Meade County of South Dakota, and my initial suspect was a fox, but the geese were as tall as our two year old daughter, can a fox get prey that large? Bobcat? Raccoon? Owl? Coyote?
