Exactly Emma, it's a wonderful life isn't it.

With my partner and I both working I feel I'd be keeping them indoors for the best part of the day

A breeder I went to to get one of my torts, kept geese in his garden, when we went in, the noise was fanominal, they make very good security guards!!!

Yes, I'd heard that they make for excellent security. They're pretty scary too!

Yes geese do make excellent security guards, but do the most enormous slippery poos everywhere, I mean enormous

I have bolted and combination padlocked sheds and have cut and stapled wire mesh a foot high along the back garden fence, mine are out during the day while I'm at work and the adults are out overnight, I do really worry about them and have considered bringing the adults indoors overnight, however they are out during the day when I am not there, otherwise they would hardly be outside, wish I was at home all day
