Herbie
is a domesticated goose (though he's a male so he's technically a
gander) who was given to my husband as a gift from a friend. He was only
one day old, just hatched and was a little yellow ball of fluff. It was
an education watching him transform to the handsome guy he is today. He
is such a good bird and is really a lot of fun to watch. He loves to
take a daily bath in his pool and play with his rubber ducks - you can
see them on the other side of the pool. He has also learned how to bark
from his (canine) brother and sister Claude and Hailey. When someone
comes to the door he joins right in with the barking to welcome them.
His favorite treat are pretzels, he loves to sit on my husband's lap and
gives him a kiss for every pretzel he eats. I never thought we would
ever have a pet goose, but now I can't imagine life without him. He
makes our lives more enjoyable every day.
