I have not had them but have heard they are mean

They are quite an aggressive species. I've seen them take on groups of Canada Geese, harass Crowned Cranes, as well as completely destroy a tiny Green-winged Teal hen (only way to identify her was her band). I would keep other waterfowl away or the Egyptians in their own enclosure.

I forgot to add that they are illegal to keep in Oregon
