four of the eggs hatched... three in the incubator (Larry, Curly, & Mo) and one "naturally" under her mom, in a nest.

geese make GREAT guards for our property... they get LOUD when anyone comes in our gate.

and even LOUDER, now that there's babies to guard!



oh, and geese work a LOT cheaper than guard dogs...

lol, a handful of dried corn, and some lettuce, and they're good for the day, 'cause they get most of their food by foraging in da jungle.
