They look like an old married couple already.

What is that fantastic mat you have down around their pool? That looks quite nifty.

That's the kids trampoline we disassembled! Its actually been really great at keeping some of the mud at bay!!

I picked up 2 ganders recently to keep my goose company. I put the ganders in a pen close to my goose, who was in with my ducks. No drama combining them and everyone gets along fine. They are pretty mellow, although I’ve never had an issue with aggression. Don’t pet them, don’t ever back down if they test you, and leave them be during breeding season in their own pen, and you should be.

Welcome to BYC! Do you keep cotton patch geese? We would love to see some pics!

And yes, Chance has made it clear to everyone that he's only interested in BB right now. He will hiss and fluff his feathers at us sometimes but we all know it's just an act!

I'm all set up now for my own goslings! I ended up buying the Cotton Patch gander, and already had a female Pom.

They are very much a pair now, and tak9ng full advantage of those hormones right now I may go ahead and get NPIP certified so that I can ship out eggs next year for those with interest. They would be Pom/CP mix.
