Oh I love Gooses! The only teenagers I have right now are my weirdo mixed batch of dewlap toulouse. One of them is buff colored and she is a little cutie!

I have a mated pair of Buff geese. They wouldnt settle down and set on the eggs though she laid plenty. Everywhere. Maybe next year, but I enjoy them as they are, too.
Cheeshead, those dont look like geese in your profile picture. Looks like a sun conure and a lovebird.

Sun conure and a cinnamon green cheek conure.

Great picture! It looks like one of those greeting cards with the cute animals with big noses

I have a question about the buffs. Since they have a more gentle disposition, is it OK to put them with other geese that might be more aggressive?

Will they intimidate a racoon or get eaten?

I don't have experience with buffs being with other geese, but I would think it probably wouldn't be too bad.....I don't see them as being total pushovers....but dunno....could depend on the individual birds involved....

As for intimidating a predator or becoming prey.... I wouldn't put it past them to possibly attempt to intimidate one. Mine would like to attack our house dog, a terrier, if they ever see her outside....and while I've always tried to keep them away from one another at such times, the dog is intimidated and keeps her distance now, but if the geese got ahold of her I'm still afraid she would bite back in defense. lol

And while they act like they would like to attack a dog, they will sqwuack and run from my 4 week old chickens. lol I have seen them bite at a chicken before, but a sudden move and the goose will run....as will the chicken. lol
