I've lost them all....

I let the baby geese out of their pen the other day and Poppa Goose has stolen them all! One still loves me but the others couldn't care less. They grow up so fast

Are you going through empty nest syndrome?

Nope, I have 4 younger babies still inside in brooders, but they are scared to death of me!

One of the stolen babies still loves me, he comes to talk to me if I'm outside, but the others don't make an effort to go out of their way to see me

Ungrateful little snots...

Pre-teens

LOLs. At the moment, I cant wait for my two to join the goose family. I love them to death, but its like having a houseful of toddlers.

I love baby geese but they do grow up too fast. I never move chicks outside until they are at least 8 weeks old. The oldest gosling is about 5 weeks old and they've been outside for almost 3 weeks

Aw!

*pat pat*

Even Binka is getting a bit more independent now. She LOVES me, but she is now OK with leaving my side to say hi to other people.

*sniffle*

OO noooo... is that what I have to look forward to.

I want them to come snuggle on my lap for a nap forever *sigh*

I might end up stealing them back...Poppa took them down to the pond this morning. Judging by the looks of them, he didn't let them in the water, but the pond is a good ways from the house so I think it's too far. Mama Goose is on a nest near the pond...when I went to gather the kids they were standing near the nest chatting with Mama. So apparently Poppa took the babies down there to introduce them to the little woman
