What with the shipping charges along with the price of the goslings themselves as well as the conversation with someone who said they were noiser than Speckles the guinea hen, I think the goose project has been cancelled. Maybe I can borrow some goats or sheep for a couple weeks and see if they can eat all the grass.
Well, Speckles is a noisy pest, but she's kinda a cute noisy pest and my DH likes to watch her spazz around the yard so she (he?) will probably continue to be in the back yard. Even if we wanted to give her away, she would have to be caught first and I haven't a clue how that would work since she is either running across the yard or up in the avocado tree.
Someone told me there was a flock of guineas up the mountain a bit, maybe they will naturalize and we will have guineas everywhere. They are really tasty to eat even if they are noisy.
