My geese will not touch pellets, crumbles. They only like scratch. So I feed them lots of greens to supplement their diets in the winter. Their favorites are: a stalk of celery, romaine, parsley, cilantro, and they like whole anise, they have fun playing with it, when it gets down to the...

Mine drink from a water bottle, but a also keep a bucket of water in their pen. My chickens drink from a water bottle, especially young chickens. to get them started just sqeeze the water bottle til it about drips and this attracts the birds to peck at the drip. works great! Sarree

8 Years!!! You mean I could be putting up with this noise for 8 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHYeeeee!!!! Oh well, They are worth it, ......I think. They are so cute running around the yard. Oh yes, and fighting with each other or screaming their cute little heads off under the neighbors...

Update on my goose with swollen foot. We took him to a very good vet. It will cost approx 500.00 to exray and operate to see what is causing the swelling. We opted to home treat with antibiotic Zeniquin and pressure wrap the foot. Hopefully, we will see improvment by Monday when we...

YOU ARE BLESSED to have such sweet geese!!! I wish mine were like that. Sarree

my roman tufted gander has a very swollen foot pad. This happened last year also and went away. this time it really seems to be painful for him and dosn't appear to be going away. we picked him up and it looks perfectly fine except for the swelling. it doesn't look like bumblefoot as there...

Thanks all!! The baby is brown with a white wing feather on both sides. Sarree

Whats the oldest your guinea fowl have lived? Sarree

Does anyone have pictures of what my baby pea will look like when fully grown? The hen is all white and the peacock is a blue Ind. I don't know if its a peahen or peacock yet. Sarree

I had one that did that and I fed him by hand for a few weeks and then it was gone. I fed him exact baby bird food with a syringe to supplement his diet, because he couldn't stand for long periods without circling. Hope this helps Sarree

we waited hours just to bid on one goose, unfortunatly it went for $85.00 too much and we didn't get it. peacocks were going for $200.00! The animals didn't have food in their cages, and some animals were stomped on and dead in the cages. It was really insane! Sarree

Just wondering if anyone went to Mt Hope Exotic Animal Auction? Can't believe how crowded it was! You would never Know we were in a recession. 2 polish hen chickens went for $85.00 dollars each! Sarree

my little banty has a prolapse. From experience I know nothing really works. but I had a thought and wanted to know what everyone else thinks. What if I kept her in a dark place so she wouldn't lay eggs, and then pushed in her prolapse, and put skin glue on the sides of her vent so she...

Let us know when you know if you have 2 ganders or 2 females. I guess you'll know when you get some eggs.....if you get some eggs. Sarree

I wouldn't risk leaving my geese out like that. They only free range when I can watch them. Theyre so big they can't fly away from free roaming dogs. they are all big babies even when a hawk flys overhead they about trample each other to get back in to safty. Sarree
