During the goose situation I also noticed Mimo run up like "I too am here to defend the family"
I have had geese and they do get aggressive during breeding time. I think Eddie gave goosey goose a lesson and put him in his place!! It shows what a good natured dog he is by not killing the goose.
Eddy was just doing his job and protecting his family from the aggressive goose, he is a very good boy! The goose was definitely out of line, hopefully he learned his lesson.
That is called farm life! Shit happens and you definitely can´t control everything. So it is what it is! You guys do great!
The geese are behaving like geese and the dogs behave like dogs. Please don’t let the trolls wreck your state of mind. Go Eddie! Goose is wonderful for a special dinner!
It all looks lovely.
Whenever i see Joachim in your videos it brings joy to my heart
Makes me wonder if the female goose is hiding eggs somewhere, I'd be looking around under house, behind the planters, etc. She may need a nesting box. If you keep them enclosed at night search every where for eggs there too. She may need to be sitting on them. Funny story with Eddie! 😂 I'm happy you two are taking portugese classes! Bravo for both of you! Have a wonderful week.❤❤
Good boy Eddie.
It's called a pecking order for a reason 😂
Another lesson learned, don't mess with Gina!
Use to have big dogs in the past. Eddy was just teaching manners. He's definitely a good boy. Any other dog, even smaller ones would have definitely done more damage.
You've been very productive this week. Your farm is looking great!
These dogs are ancestrally prepared to fight with wolves, lucky day for the geese.
Mimo jumped in to protect Eddie!! ❤
I know, its very sweet :)
Eddie was just telling the ducky to watch who you mess with! Bet it won't happen again! They'll be fine, animals have feelings too! Thank you for sharing! Continued prayers and love for you all!❤😊
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys.
Both species are very protective and more so during matting season for the geese. The geese attack and the dog just lets them know who is the boss and in charge
It's lovely to see the Portuguese country life. If you get a chance to include honeybees or related activities it would be interesting.
It was a power struggle. Both males looking to see who was king of the farm and the goose learned he was not the king. That bee sound was crazy.
All worked out in the end. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods today. Be Well . 👍👍 Jim, Harriet and Yuki
Spring is springing! All the beautiful flowers and the buzzy bees. Even here in N.S. it's beginning to spring. Crocuses are beginning to sprout. It's all good. I hope the goosies learned a little healthy respect for big doggies. 🙂👍👍🇨🇦
Geese getting ready to breed
Look forward to your your videos🎉
Love the goose story. Eddy was putting manners on him😅
Great job on the damn✔️💐
Thanks Maureen
Geese can be jerks. That goose learned a hard lesson. Can’t keep geese down though. They’ll be back causing trouble in no time. Eddy didn’t nothing a good guard wouldn’t do. No geese were harmed.
It looks like Spring has already sprung.
The goose learned the hard way what the acronym FAFO stands for. 😮
Had to google that, ...but yes, absolutely!
All the critters love you guys!
It’s good to know about the koi eating the mosquito larvae.
Great to see you strive. As for fertilizer, plants of the leguminosae family enrich the ground they're growing on with nitrogen! Clover is a species often used for that purpose, and the seeds are pretty cheap. They will also spread themselves, and the fertilizing effect will be permanent, as opposed to fertilizers you have to add again and again.
The vines look great, Gina’s been busy.
He was just telling goose off he could have easily have bitten gooses head off good dog, they have learned there lesson when Eddy walked past after the walk they went to the middle of the lawn 😂🤣😂🤣
Love the video of the bees shame about the sound
Thank you for sharing 😁
relaxing sunday viewing, thanks guys. your portuguese sounding good ken. many lesson hours! fortunately i was saved the intricacies of learning australian - they just gave me citizenship anyway ; )
Haha thanks John! Its taking a long time to sink in... I thought id pick it up fast but my brain dosent seem to be as elastic anymore! 😂
Eddy was defending himself. Perhaps place the chicken wire higher.
I know how you feel with learning a new language. I’ll turn 70 in April and I have decided to learn French. 😆😆 Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Same thing with their verbs. Argh!! 😊
Good luck! :)
Joys of the farm, Stuff happens. Ignore the nae sayers!! I bet most haven't kept livestock. All the very best
Ah, those geese. I’ll be dealing with them on my runs soon. They are all over the place here in Calgary in spring. They hang out near ponds and the river. When the chicks are about, you have to give them a wide birth as they do charge some times. And they like to hang out right next to the pathway, which can be an issue.
Glad the goose was unharmed. Obviously the dog knew he was giving a warming to an agressive goose! Feels odd watching you from PT in my own house 2 hours west of you.
Boa tarde Ken e Gina. Muito legal o passeio pela fazenda. Tudo ficando lindo. Ver vcs todos bem. Há, há, há dogs e gansos 😂😂❤❤
Goose vs. Dog: it's not a mistake. You didn't do anything wrong. Both were following their natural instincts. I know a goose can become really aggressive, my husband had a hard time getting past a goose to get in his car. As for language classes, hang in there, we just recently finished. It is very tough.
portuguese sounds similar to French with its masculine and feminine words. I think Eddie reacted like that because of Gina's proximity, its his guarding genes kicking in!
I hatched 12 geese a yr ago. I have 8 left. Predators got the others. I can relate to your story. Geese can get a bit aggressive but my most aggressive male will only charge up to anything and stop 3 feet short. Mine are more scared to actually make contact with anyone or any predator. Geese are wonderful to have on a farm but my ducks are my true love and joy.
Its been a learning experience. Im not sure about ducks as I hear they are very messy, but I'd love a big male peacock strutting around the farm 😆
They are messy but if the have a large area to roam and have big pools or ponds it's not too bad.@@OKportugal
@OKportugal - Oh, a beautiful peacock would be awesome! They do have loud and harsh voices though...
I was raised on a farm. I don’t see any mistake here. Eddie’s a good dog. He could have easily killed the goose. The goose will think twice before going after Eddie again.😂
Get a roll of 25mm hole size chicken wire and tie with cable ties to the existing goose enclosure. The roll width need not be more than 70cm ( 700mm) that way the geese can't be harmed.
Sorry my english..its great have a couple like you in portugal thanks
Muito obrigado Antonio!
Beautiful farm lucky to have space and safe 🎉 maybe get the shade netting attached to fence the they can't stick necks out. If u guys can afford the netting. Maybe just general safer 🎉❤❤k🎉
I have followed your videos since the very beginning. We have enjoyed your farm experiences and often thought that we might like to move to Portugal because of the political divide and craziness of Trump. We love /loved your animals esp. DogDog. WE are not being critical , but it seems best to get rid of the geese . Sooner or later , esp. if you are on vacation there will be a more serious conflict. I love dogs and never had geese, only chickens. They look nice , but seem noisy eat your garden bed crops. Happy to see you are taking the language classes. I cannot imagine learning this language which is one reason I have never moved to Portugal. Good luck. It should be nice to enjoy full access to the whole EU!Take care.
Hi Ray yes I agree with you. We will try to rehome them.
After I asked the question, you answered it, thanks!
MY Wife attacks me like that and bites my cheeks ..I love it ...haha i think if big Dog wanted to hurt the Goose he could have in the blink of an eye also Goosey did bite big Dog first love your farm and how you relate to your neighbor and he to you as it should be keep safe thank you for the video.
Haha, maybe you need an Eddie to protect you 😅❤
@@OKportugal YES.
I find it so chilly here on the Azores, even though it’s in 50s and 60s Fahrenheit, I have to learn the Celsius still lol.
❤
as l read on one of your comments you are thinking of rehoming them l think you should will make for a more chilled home and less stress, and l am sure their new home will be better suited perhaps with other geese, more space and a pond and they will be happier too
Yes if we find a good home for them somewhere they wont have issues with other animals we would be happy to rehome them.
These geese do free range on our farm for most of the day. They have access to our farm dam but they never go there, they actually prefer their small black tub bizarrely.
We only shut them in that enclosure when we are out walking the dogs or have guests over.
I want some chickens but have to settle somewhere first. I just arrived a week ago.
LOVED THE VIDEO CHAT!
Hey Melinda, I enjoyed it too but it just ended all of a sudden when i was writing an answer. Oh well 😅
@@OKportugal All is good!
Boa Tarde! How are you finding the Portuguese classes? It’s not an easy language to learn, but being here in Portugal helps. ❤️🇵🇹
So Joaquim is not a terrorist. You really do have great neighbours.
He is the best! ❤😆
That could have happened to anybody. Maybe you need to put chicken wire inside of the present fence
A chicken wire lining is a great idea! It would prevent further incidents. (I've been bitten by domestic geese and it is quite painful, they have powerful jaw muscles and the inside of their beaks is very rough and abrasive)
The goose was looking for trouble, not Eddie's fault, he was only protecting.
Agree 100%! Eddy was doing his job - protecting his family from the aggressive goose. He is a very good boy!
Hi sir your video very nice
Your comprehension seems pretty good! Is A1 beginner or is B1 beginner?
Does Joachim k ow that hes famous?
Wow so many bees you need to make honey
Are you able to have the geese and the chickens together or would it be carnage?
The initial idea was to have the goose in with the the chicken flock, to help guard them from predators, but the chickens bullied the goose when it was young. Now that he's much bigger, he bullies the chickens! So we have to keep them separated which complicates things a bit 😅 Since the incident the Geese stay very far away from Eddie so I don't think we will have any more dog-goose issues any time soon.
Are the geese friendly with you?
I noticed the gas thingy in the geese area... thats dangerous... they tend to nip at everything and destroy plastic stuff....
He could’ve killed the goose, the geese have to chill a little, Eddie trained that goose.
Once she sitting on eggs she will be very protective
hi ken would like to ask you some questions about visiting central Portugal ! completely understand if your busy but if ok where should I send questions
Ken who did your fencing I need mine going I’m not that far from you
Hi Peter, drop me an email on okportugal@hotmail.com and i can give you the details.
Emailed you Ken . Thank you
Hi Ken, I'm looking forward to the "show ".
Did you get my email.?
Regards.
Pulé.
Morning Pulé, yes i think so, was it about a telephone scam warning or something like that?
@@OKportugal Ja.
for some reason the chat only allows my palworld char to chat live..
Hi Anne, thats strange... UA-cam is acting all buggy for me today. Its playing the audio from another video at the same time as my video is streaming.
@@OKportugal at least its not the bug that i got - 12 subscribers disappeared at once and now i have to wait for them to investigate if it was spam subs which i know its not.
Farming seems very time consuming.
So I’m wondering if the fertilizer will harm the bees.
People can be so opinionated sometimes, very annoying.
You are terrible people!!!!!!
Only on Monday mornings 🤣
@@OKportugal😂 man, you need to rehome those geese ASAP or do a roast 😅 don't get any goats either!! your stages of reaction were my parents' exactly when they got geese, quickly went from fluffy bliss to murderous intentions. May the force be with you and less with Eddie's veneers! Amen.
@@sarasilva-rc9ve I do like the geese, they are very funny animals, but its proving to be a bit difficult to keep them separated from the chickens (and dogs!).
We are considering rehoming them. I couldnt bring myself to eat Goosey-Goose 😅
@@OKportugalCheck the "Farmer For Fun". They have a lot of chickens and ducks. Maybe they can home Gossey Goose. They even are quite close by to you.
Good on you Ken. I couldn’t eat an animal I had named either. A kilometre is 5/8s of a mile.
