Very sad...I had a goose that was taken with her eggs by a female coon nursing babies. That was in late spring though...I am betting fox on your ducks. They have no problem coming out in the daylight when they have kits. Good luck! My .22 is loaded by the back door! Terrio

Aww, sorry to hear about your goose and her eggs. :( I used to love my geese. They were so loyal to me. Just like my dogs. When I was in my house, they would sleep right outside the window where I was sitting. If I got up and moved into my kitchen, they moved too. It was really funny. The geese were the one animal sound I could here without hearing aids. It was like having a watch dog outside, 24-7. The only problem was.....they didn't like other people. :( They were fine until a visting teenager decided to kick one of the males. From then on, it was hard to visit my house, unannounced. I had to pen them up when company came. :(

Whatever has been coming in, nab a pet rooster out of my big barn, too. I've been working so much outside the home, that I'm hardly ever here anymore. Guess the wildlife is starting to look at this place like the local diner. :(
