Well, I don't know if they are "good" Sebbies?? I will try to get a pic of them tonight. Since I only have one pair, I probably can't offer more than an egg or two at a time. Do you have any pics of lavenders??

The lady I got them from said they will start to lay as early as February!! I'm sooo excited.

They ARE funny! I seriously love these geese. They have such a comical expression all the time. And they have the prettiest blue eyes. I didn't know they were blue eyed!

Here's a photo of one.

equibling, that lavender is gorgeous!! Congrats!!

Mine aren't as fluffy as those pictures. Maybe they're not good quality? But I love them anyway!

Those are $200 per bird!

You can get "discounts" on smooth-breasted ones because they don't look as cool but they actually reproduce better and have less occurances of "angel wing" according to Dave Holderread....so I may end up with smooth breasteds. I also want some of those saddlebacks....

I will have to look at the breasts on mine (insert blushing smilie here). Offhand, I think they are smooth. What's Angelwing?

Here is some info on Angel Wing:

Hmm... Seems to me that their wings do point out funny. I just figured it was because they have curly feathers, but maybe there is something wrong with them???

I think those smooth breasted ones are gorgous! (Geese do the tiptoe/flapping wings Happy Dance FAST, at least mine do it fast

Maybe Sebbies do it slower?
