My Grey Lags let you stroke them, and talk to you, if I had a nasty goose that bit children
it would be in the pot
The Grey Lags run free on the farm with a Rottweiler, Cavalier, Kittens, Cats, Runner Ducks, Khaki Campbell, Hens, Cocks, Aylesbury Ducks.
The ony time I have seen the male goose hiss, is at the Runner Ducks when they go to the pond and he is drinking - they just move further round.
They don't like the Rotti - but he is a big chap, so its probably his size, but they just wide berth him they do not attack - really easy going and get on with all the animals and visitors
