Here is a bit of an update on my three little babies.













Hahaha I love this shot- Follow the leader!

so cute!
 
Awesome - what kind of geese and duck?
 
Thanks guys. The small goose is an African Goose. Big guy is a Grey Toulouse Goose. And the duck is an Indian Runner Duck. :) They are my little babies. So funny to watch.

I have had geese - they are wonderful, especially if they follow you around.
Just a word of caution - Toulouse get huge. I had a pair of Toulouse hybrids and their heads reached my midrib section. They would protect me, and they were SCARY!

Yea I am well aware lol. This guy is growing like a weed! I am hoping that he gets nice and big. I think that would be the funniest thing ever to see a huge goose run out from behind the house and come honking at you. I really can't wait until they get thier full colors in though. They will be beautiful. Anyone know how long that will be?

Yes, they'll be GORGEOUS! Esp. the African, which is basically like a small Toulouse, and even more protective :)

They are starting to get their new feathers - you can see it starting to come in - I'd say a month, or two.
 
Yea they look so funny when they are molting. I can't wait for the african. Oh they are soooo pretty but I thought they were a larger strain of chinese geese not tuolouse.
