Tufted roman geese

I'm new to all this but just got tufted roman geese babies and an assortment of chicks. Does anyone know if they will coexist nicely? I know ducks and chickens do fine, not sure about geese and chickens though.

I have 10 geese. A trio of tufted romans, a trio of white chinese, a pair of brown chinese and a pair of production toulouse. They live with 16 chickens. All of them get along great. They eat together, drink together and share nests. The toulouse were the only ones raised with the chickens and the rest were introduced this year with no problems.

Great! Thank you. I'm hoping they all get along. Right now we have a huge wood enclosure with the chicks on one side and the geese on the other. There is a clear divider so they can see each other. They all seem very interested in each other. The geese are so much bigger than the chicks I'm afraid they'll get hurt right now. I'll introduce them when the chicks are bigger.

Yes waiting until they are bigger is best. The geese Probably wouldnt get hurt but the chicks might. Mine as adults are great together. I kept mine side by side with a see through divider until old enough to be together. Good luck with your new babies!!
