Buff Dewlap Toulouse Thread

I should take some, the buffs have gotten bigger, and dewlapped out more. They aren't show specimens, but they are geese of character, dignity, and when they look me in the eyes, I know they aren't any bodies unfeeling dummies. They are gentle soulful birds for sure. The white Africans are showy and sharp, noisy, bossy, and independent. Meep and Meep meep (the two goslings we hatched and kept) are a little friendlier, but are rapidly becoming like their folks. The sebbies and buffs hang out, but the Africans do their own thing, and they'd thank you for minding your own business, if they spoke English. The sebbies are funny dorky puffballs. Not as docile as the buffs. Not very smart. Not especially attentive. Clearly bread for looks and not wits and practicality. LOL. I'm thinking about selling mine.

I agree with Marty's assessment of the Sebbie and Dewlap overall personalities. I do love my Embdens... not as loud and brash as Marty's Africans but they are the watchdogs of my group. Everyone comes running when Mom comes through the gate.

My critters will give me reason to get up every morning and get going. Something I'm afraid I will need for the next few months.
 
Nice to see this thread coming alive again.

Who cares if they are "show" quality? They are still beautiful to me. Please share pics when you can.

Geese aren't the only ones who mate for life, but your right, your indeed in good company.
