Geese or chickens?

I would have to vote geese, I've got about a dozen of geese and I give them no grain. They're out 24/7 foraging,They have a 10x8 shed to sleep in at night. I almost never have to clean it though since they prefer to sleep outside.. they alert me to predators, and honestly they cost me the least out of the other 5 different types of poultry I raise. The only thing I spend on them is bedding, they do poop quite a lot but I'd rather deal with that then having to spend over $200 of feed a month for my chickens, ducks, turkeys, guineas and pheasants..
Geese require a lot less than chickens do, They're super hardy birds and don't need much for winter. No extra bedding, Maybe a little grain during the winter, But not much else.
 
Plus, They'er super fun to watch and have around :)

Chickens are more quite than my geese, Although they don't go off as often as made out to be. My africans are quieter than my Chinese, And my saddle backs are very quite, They only go off if something's going after them or if they get spooked.
