Hi Lynne...you are probably right...I didn't look it up to see for sure
whether it was ducks or geese...Franklin

That would be ducks.
Ducks eat slugs, bugs, frogs, etc. When we had ducks, we didn't have
tadpoles in our pond anymore.
I don't know of any breed of geese off-hand that eat bugs and slugs.
I have always known that geese are vegetarians.
I know mine are vegetarians, they scream when the chickens and guineas eat
bugs.
I don't know if there is a breed of geese that will eat bugs and slugs.
But I would certainly research it before you go out and buy some ;)
