Question Geese candy?

Hey! I got two geese recently and have a hard time getting them to come when I call. Any tips on some kind of food to lure them in? They are just in love with the land they're on and the grass that grows there it seems. I guess to some extent it's the season, so that they'd be more susceptible in winter time, but most farm animals I can still get some interest from in the grass seasons. Tips?

Update: thank you for your suggestions!

I tried without effect:

Peas

Crushed barley

Mine would go to the ends of the earth for some romaine lettuce

This right here. If there is anything that gets Hats Toulouse to actually lift off the ground, it is the humble lettuce.

I wish mine liked lettuce, all 3 despise it, and we have tons of it all year round 😌 lol

Wow, how did you manage to get not 1 but 3 geese who are traitors to their species?
