Well, now there's a new plan. The whole idea of geese is someone in the back yard to quietly eat the grass. Some folks have said sheep and goats can be quiet noisy at times. Geese and ducks are supposed to be real good at eating grass and geese are supposed to be entirely vegetarian so I figured they would be the best choice. However, I met a fellow last Saturday who has had geese as well as guinea hens and he said geese were louder than guineas. Ack! The neighbors would be definitely less than pleased if geese are louder than guineas.
Now the new plan is to trade the guinea hen for a pair of ducks. They are a mallard/khaki campbell cross, but they should still eat the grass and hopefully quietly. Anyone else have any good ideas on how to have someone else do the lawn?
