Thanks everyone for sharing my admiration, I think they're pretty awesome myself... and even if they don't follow me quite as much as they used to, they are learning so much so fast. When they get nervous about anything new they still run to me, which drives my older goose bonkers--he is quite sure that that is NOT proper behaviour for the babies
I have never owned African geese of any variety before and they are so gentle. I hope they do get loud though later on. I hope they will be a decent warning system for the poultry area, but even if they are not, I just love them anyhow.
