Run some fish line back and forth with the fence if you can and hang some ribbons on it to scare off the hawk , That hawk will not move on now that it s got chicken to eat, or put up a scare crow, stuff that moves a lot,
Yes they will set, Also when baby s hatch the male will look after them, while the F set for the rest to hatch, wonderful pair of parents, now don t try and pick up a baby you will be attack for sure, nothing touches there baby s LOL
Sound s like a male to me , When he mounts and get s off if your fast enough look to see if he s got a penis , it takes a sec to put back in, . If you put a goose with hens they will keep them safe from Arial birds or raccoons or any pest, Guard geese are wonderful to have
They are acting like normal geese, sound like you got a M & F , on the size, When you see them mount one day you will know for sure , Geese are the top dog in the yard, and they don t let any forget that ,
I don t have dogs or cat s , just hens and geese, Geese make the best pets and keep bad people out of the yard, as most people are scared of geese, And they let you know when some one comes around, I eat her eggs in the spring when she lay s around 35 to 50 eggs, each year, So far he s a dud...
I Have had geese for 30 or more years, One Chinese goose live for 19 1/2 years , was wonderful Had 1/4 acre to walk around was only pen in the last years of his life at night due to raccoons , before that he chased every thing else off, Loved kids and lady s hate men, would chase them off the...
I raised a goose from new born on my acre he passed away at 19 1/2 years Never hurt a child , Now I have a pair of Chinese I hatched and I love them, I do lock them up in a wire pen at night due to many raccons , but they roam free all day keeps the grass cut , I don t own dogs or cats, and...
If they are in closed at night they will be fine, Wild birds make it thru so will hens, just as long as they are not getting wet, You can hang a lite blub for a little heat but that s not good as when it s day time they don t sit under the heat they run around and look for bugs and food, Been...
I cut the fat off chicken , pork or what ever and feed it to them, rolled oats in yogurt, bread, Mine also free range, all day, on a acre so get bugs and worms,
They jump up and ate my grapes from the vine. Chicken s eat almost every thing, mine get there grains also, and oyster shells,
Raccoons usually also go for the belly looking for eggs,I m sure it was a large family of Raccoons, Weasel don t run in large family groups . Sad it happen to me once , took the kids to a Show got home to lock up and all Ducks dead .
Pour a box of Baking soda in the hole and the run, It kills rats, Rats are very clean animals and they get the B S on there feet and lick it off, and they can not fart or burp so that s what kills them , trust me it sure works and will not kill your chicken, and cheap to buy,
Yes a game camera is the way to go, I had a rat that was as big as a kitten, only found out with the G C , Oh I did catch and kill that rat, I love my G C its great in the yard and building s Great to see what goes on at night when we are asleep >LOL
Get rid of him, Or carry a hand held water pistol an squirt him they hate water, try not to let him see your gun, Yes do keep small kids away they go for the eyes, Some you can not train to leave every one alone, Dinner is better them a blind child,
