[@Legion12Centurion]

They litterally fight to the death if you stay near where they are defending... you can bash them, scare them or whatnot but they are sort of wired to fight eighter to you die or they die. I read its part of a survival mechanism due to them not being able to escape predators so easily on land so this is part of there evolution and survival. its kinda fashinating... I always found it odd though that they developed a sort of snake like sound. But its probably part of this to sort of scare predators or other animals that might otherwise threaten them.

[@doggo_woo]

@@Legion12Centurion Most predators don't mess with snakes as some have venomous bites. Now imagine, a predator doesn't see the goose nest or something, hears the "snake" noise. The predator will tell everyone else that there are snakes there, which will cause all other predators to not approach the area.

Hello Morgan, Tobi is a really talented herd dog, a natural talent. Beautiful video.

Toby must taste good too. He could be murdered with love too.

[@DerpyEinstein]

“*YOU!*” the bird turns to look up at you and it’s eyes widen with fear. It hastily backs up into the wall as your giant hands wrap around its entire being. The spectators hiss and glare menacingly at you as you delicately place it back into it’s housing. There is an air of awkward hostility as you slowly back out of the cage. As you turn to leave one of the flock snaps and comes towards you. “*YOU!*” A goose honks angrily as it lunges for your boot. It doesn’t hurt, you are merely annoyed that it is ruining the fringing near the tip of your foot. “*YOU!*” You exclaim back as you clasp your hands firmly around the gander’s throat, restraining it from attacking you further. “Jssnsbdick dndisbd djdsolsjdbdbdbdb.”

So is a 30% hatch rate common? Not a criticism just wondering how it compares to your artificial hatching?

[@LaMangouste]

9 eggs was probably too many for two broody gooses. I assume the ones on the center hatched, better heat conservation.

[@TruckToThings]

Not a common hatch rate. When two birds share the same nest they fight over eggs and this causes the hatch rate to drop dramatically.

@@LaMangouste A single goose could handle 12 eggs so...

A few things about that 'simple life' idea: a) A farmer has lots of 'bosses' that demand constantly. b) It's easily an 80 hour week or more. c) If you mess up, it's not getting yelled at or whatever, but something could die. If animals die, you don't do so well either. d) You must be a self-starter. e) The working conditions can include cold and wet, hot and sweaty, stinky and poopy, and attack animals.

You‘re way up there ....watching you feeding your ducks is always a delight and if you want to have really non agressive geese you have to hatch them in a way that you are the first thing they see, then the geese and gander will think you are their mom and they will never ever be aggresive towards you ... so hatch out a colony as a breeding flock and for many years you will have super geesse... but they will turn against any other person still except you

Two things, first, don't take the stick in there with you. It is seen as a war club and he's a gander doing his job. Second, try humming. It used to work on mine when I was a kid.
