We had a warm day today hit 45 I went out and pulled weeds from the pasture and they all helped. They did 4 pretend flights for me enjoying the exposed land. Its hard to explain but I keep planting cool season grass for the kidos but its been such a drought so I pull about 400 square feet of weeds off the land and expose the grass they can still enjoy and they all come to help. Really they just want to root anything they think I may have left behind. But when its cold they just miss me.
Its funny I started out with a small flock of geese 6 girls and one boy (was a recommendation from the hatchery knew nothing about geese). Most were re homed to good people. I only have the one my grandson named Daisy Duck. I call her MaMa since she has raised all the babies/adults I have now.
Such a tiny girl but respected by all..
I Loved hatching and the babies WOW what a experience. But decided I wanted to be responsible if I was hatching it should be to improve so I got a education on what I should be doing.
I was so Lucky when the Holderred's understood and by chance I got 4 of there 1 day babies and the Johnson Buffs. This year the whites from Johnsons also.
BUT the best experience with all of them is being with them working with them as a flock and spending time with them.
My guess is the geese all feel the same way. When there used to seeing me and I go in Dam its cold there just lost.
Breeding season is now just around the corner cant wait.... But till then I probably need to get some heated mittens so they dont think there forgotten..
