Should I get a male goose to protect my flock?

Do males make better protectors than females? Thanks so much guys.

Reasons Why You Shouldn't Keep Just One Goose

Male or female they won't do much protecting. But will provide a large enough meal that it may hold the predator over for a few days. Guess that may save a chicken or two for a few more days.

I agree. My best defense is nice large covered pens for my birds with electric wires around the pens and coops and concrete under the gates, which I did because of losses from predators in the past. I also have game cameras up around on my property and see predators on them but I think the adults teach their young that a chicken isn't worth it.
