Geese for Security???
John Havener September 14th, 2009
Some tome ago I read that the Germans put geese around their high value installations for security purposes…nothing got close without the honkers sounding off ! I thought I would try it and bought 4 Chinese brown goslings from a hatchery. They were cute, but definitely high maintenance. Then they needed a little house to protect them from cold weather…then they needed to be fenced in, so they would not make a mess with their amazing output of waste. Then they needed fresh water and a place to swim…I put more than $500.00 into my security experiment (What a fine dog I could have bought!). The other night I went out on other business, but approached their pen and swimming pool (yes!). I came within 10 feet, but they snoozed away! Of course they honk if my wife or I appear during the day . Oh well, they are still cute,but uh, the males are a little testy and may bite…buy a dog!
Back to doberman pinchers huh?
It was fun to watch the experiment / process.
