Shetland Geese UPDATED NEW PICS

[Wifezilla]

Oh wow!!!

So how tall are these cute critters compared to, say, a peking duck?

Nice. I tried to get me some but none of the eggs I ordered hatched.

What are they like? Are they as noisey as my mother's chinese geese? I would love some geese, but I don't think I could get away with the honking. I would like to know how big they get, too. (need to learn about sebbies as well.) lol
Thanks!

Those are Muscovy ducks! Those aren't even geese.

Yup those are some real pretty Muscovy, not geese.

Here are some new pics of them.

Gander (Luke)

Those are both drakes, female Muscovy are small. Notice how thick their legs are.

Ha Ha I thought my mind was playing tricks on me when I saw the first picture and the first person said that's a pretty Shetland geese. I was thinking to my self when did muscovy get a name change and became a goose. None the less don't mind my personal out loud thinking, they are still very beautiful muscovy ducks. But you should really see the wild muscovy ducks,so elegant, majestic and beautiful. Sorry there I go again with my random rambling.

Ok all before this goes any further...............

this thread is from 2009............. the photos were likely switched on the photo sharing service the poster used and updated here with the wrong images.

the old forum had many using things like photobucket to share pictures back then, so if an image got replaced it would change it everywhere it was posted
