Suggestions for integrating new geese into an existing flock?

[Miss Lydia]

I think E Fowl will send just a few bird and may have them sexed, I'm not sure. E Fowl is like a drop ship. You order and they find a breeder that will ship a few birds. I'm not that positive on that, but something to look into. LOL!!!! no I don't plan on showing. In order to have the things I love, I had to give up my car. I've been without a car for about 5 yrs now. I rent a car from Hertz. They pick me up and drive me home. I rent it for one day only and do ALL my shopping in one day. It's a bit tuff, unloading all the horse feed, poultry feed, my feed, dog and cat feed for 1 month, but the choice was mine, to keep the things I love. I just bought a 3 wheel moped. It's suppose to arrive this afternoon. That will help me get to are small town, which has everything I might need to hold me over until my big day out. It's been an experience!

I bet it has been an experience and what a wonderful way to have the animals you want and live a better life to boot. I'd love to see your new moped don't think I've seen a 3 wheeler before except in huge bikes.

Miss Lydia- Thank you for all your information and help!
I found 2 Toulouse (thank you Miss Lydia) just 3 hours away at a very small commercial farm. They arrived a few days ago and only needed a few hours introduction to my gander. Everyone seems to be happy!

I have an existing flock of 8, 2 year old geese who are very friendly and really like people and I recently brought home three 1 year old geese. Long story short the 3 geese are pretty terrified of everything and don't really act like normal geese in my opinion. I am trying to get all of them to get along in one group. Is this even possible? What would be the best way to go about doing so if it is? How concerned should I be about my existing flock picking up "bad habits" (being scared of everything) from the new geese? 

Help please our gretel has been setting of and on for 3 weeks now does any one think any of her eggs will hatch?
