I searched through the forum and didn't find any threads related to this. I've also googled and watched way too many videos on youTube. I feel sickened by the brutality and lack of concern for their animals people have.
I have 4 Toulouse Geese and I've had them for about 3 years now. I think they're probably boys because none of them have ever laid an egg. They've been fine from the time I first got them but now they're getting aggressive. The whole point was to have goose eggs and goslings that would grow up to be dinner so it doesn't do me any good to have all males.
I'm going to keep one because he's still friendly and another one for a companion. I don't know whether geese are social like chickens but I don't want him to be lonely. Is an axe the most humane way to kill them? Almost all the videos on youTube use that method and there's days when I ****** off enough that I've been tempted but if a creature is going to put food on the table, the least I can do is give them the least traumatic death that I can.
