We have geese that live with our chickens and help guard them from predators. They do a pretty good job of alerting and herding the hens out of danger.

This quilt block shows a half-circle shaped building against a blue background. The half-circle is above the ground, with the lower half being below the ground if it were there. The front of the long structure has sliding tan doors in the middle. Next to the doors are two square sets of vents drawn in pen.

These “hoop houses,” large Quonset-shaped greenhouses, are where the laying hens spend the winters. They are free-range in these large structures with fresh bedding and fresh hay all winter long.

This quilt block shows three pointy green trees on a patch of grass against a gray background. The important part here though is that in the patch of grass is a blue pond area with three duck shaped (and colored) buttons with two holes each. They are so cute, and bright, with little red beaks all in a row.

I can tell you from experience that they have a lot to say to each other. Their house is outside my bedroom window and I swear they convene a meeting about midnight every day.
