‘A***hole’ geese become internet sensations as farmer writes honest for-sale post

All Leslie Du Preez wanted was to add a little tranquillity to her small southern Queensland farm.

"We got these beautiful geese and thought they'd be a wonderful addition to our beautiful zen-like property," she said.

It did not go to plan.

"The geese had other ideas. They were arseholes!"

"They terrorised our poor sheep, they made little kids cry. The roosters got pecked and the peacock's tail feathers got pulled out by them. There was no peaceful free-ranging and having a good time. It was mayhem."

But the way she handled the situation certainly struck a chord with farmers all over the country.

She posted on her local animal buy and sell page on Facebook.

"I thought, 'it's time to go' when everybody was crying on the farm," she said.

PHOTO The geese were 'top dogs' on the farm.

"I decided honesty was the best policy and it went a little bit viral."

NEW HOME URGENT

We have a small flock of 5 geese. 3 males and 2 females that we need to rehome.

WARNING They are arseholes!!!

That's a very cute story. Thanks for sharing it; I had a much needed laugh today with this. I have a funny story about my grandfather's banty roosters that will make y'all laugh; I will tell it one of these days. Thanks, again. Katt
