The pros of having geese:
1. they will assure you of not getting company and being left alone
The Cons of having geese:
1. they poop every 3rd step.
2. they poop approximately 2 pounds of poop for every pound of body weight per hour.
3. they prefer sitting on front steps and sidewalks to any place else.
4. They poop every 3 minutes while sitting
5. Their poop is sticky green and everywhere
6. They will occasional go to their "swimming" area where they will wear the bank/edge down to mud and slide in and out of the water making a mess of the shoreline
7.They will drag their wet muddy bodies back to all chicken waterers and make them completely unusable with mud
8. They can make clean mud stink
9. They will poop in chicken feeders for fun
10. They will tip over chicken feeders and waterers if given half a chance
11. They will chase other birds (turkeys, chickens and guineas in my case) away from all feeders
12 they will follow chickens as they free range and harass them
13. they will poop where the chickens are trying to graze making the land unusable
14 they are noisey
15 they are dirty
16 every other step you take will be like stepping on a land mine of poop
17 their poop is slippery when you step on it
18 stepping on goose poop will cause you to fall down and roll in ,ore goose poop
19 They will destroy a garden in ways chickens only dream of
20 flowers are not exempt from their eating them
21 Flowers make good goose poop
22 If you have a hydrant they will camp by said hydrant making walking to it dangerous and smelly
23 Trying to chase a goose to an area you want them in is nearly impossible, one will always break free
24 Trying to round up geese requires knee high boots
25 When a goose poops the poop will fly up to 3 yards from the gooses butt
26 Goose poop will splatter and hit your ankles if they are near you
27 Geese require a fence rivalling fort knox to stay inside it
The list goes on, I suggest you buy a couple geese just to see what they are like
