Well, it worked for the Romans when the sacred geese warned of the Celtic invaders from Gaul!
Kaiser, Gretschen, Gretel and Gerda do some guard duty on the patio.

Sounds more like the Vandals got there before the Celts.

Alan they are beautiful, particularly like your last pic! Such a look of confusion or maybe interest?

My Brother had four as an animal alarm system. Trouble was they wouldn't let the postman in.

What is your current number of livestock at the moment, Alan?

I honestly don't know. It must be somewhere in the region of 130-140, but some are given away some are sold, new ones hatch and old ones die. We'll no doubt do a census before the winter to see where we're at.
