    At what age to geese become more independent?

    Yep, this is normal. They are imprinted on you as "Mom". They will be more interested in each other next year, especially if they are a pair. Sebby's are a very people friendly breed and will probably always prefer being near you. Our girl would often sit looking at us through the window...

    Finish this sentence: "You know you're addicted to chickens when..."

    ...when you consider taking your newest awesome chicken , or cute baby chick , to show off at work, and can't understand why everyone wouldn't want to have a pet chicken in the office , and really hate it when some jerk at work thinks it's funny if he asks if you have brought in "lunch"

    Mixed Mille Fleur Rooster

    This was my favorite rooster, from a few years ago, that has sadly passed on. I would love another, but really have no idea what he was. I got him as a half-grown chick at an animal flea market. He was a friendly, bantam size, partly Mille fleur colored, but not feather legged. I named him...

    Lookin for breeders of Mini Geese in or near Washington state...

    They are sure cute and pretty. How old are they, how long have you had them? How do they compare to other breeds in temperament and noise level? I had emdems before and have been considering normal sized pilgrims or sebbys.

    poll: are you legal or an outlaw?

    Not legal Did have a problem with the city a few years ago when an employee heard my rooster, had no complaint from neighbors, got lots of signatures from neighbors on a petition to change the ordinance, but when the city realized I was prepared to fight, they dropped it. Now I do have only hens.
