My little goose smith isn't so little anymore and is around 4 months now. I notice that he sometimes "vibrates" when he sits next to my leg or arm and will push his chest onto my body or keep his face on my skin.if I pet him the vibrating continues too. I thought it was similar to a cat, but I...
he began with another gosling, but it died shortly after its arrival, it was very tiny and sickly. i do plan on getting him a friend but i am unsure because of his foot? and yes, any tips would be great
my little Smith is now 28 days old, i got the little fella as a gift when he was only 3 days old. Lately, even as a small ball of yellow poof he has been very agressive towards me? i dont understand why but what was once a nibble here and there had become very rough pinching and harsh pulling of...
Great, a perfectly happy little golsing, even with the extra vitamins the lump on his leg has yet to go down so i am beginning to think it is a growth?He still limps but other than that he seems fine, the closest vian vet is 5 hours away in austin.. so i seem to be at a loss her as i am clueless...
my gosling is about a little over half a month now and ive noticed every time he drinks water and eats, little drops of water come out of his nostril and he shakes his head to shake them off. is this normal? after a while i guess he gets it out and it stops until he drinks and eats, then the...
i actually had a question on that, i feed my little gosling DuMor Chick Starter/Grower and it very specifically says "no additional vitamins and minerals are not needed, and has goslings as a species it can feed. on the ingredients it says it has Niacin supplement, but not how much exactly.. i...
unfortunately little Smith's foot has not gotten any better. although it is no longer red and warm, it is still enlarged and he limps often. the area has also begun to look a litte scaley at the bottom or the foot where it is swollen and the skin looks flakey (the foot is a healthy color still)...
hi, this mornng while i had him wrapped up i heard him go poo so i got up to clean the blanket, what i noticed waa although it was a healtht brown and whute capped poo, it was covered by a bright green kinda booger -lookng liquid? i stopped giving him lettuce around 4 days ago becase he almost...
the strangest thing happpened in fact
after i soaked his little foot in the epsom salt the redness, warmth and swelling was almost completly gone! yet today i noticed the same foot red and swollen againinbthe same area.. i was shocked to find a tick on the bottom of his foot hidden between...
yes the little buldge there is warm, but when he gets excited he can still walk on it and he does, he just limps a bit. should i prevent him standing completly?
also thank you so much for the reply i was getting a little nervous
i have an about 12 day gosling who breathes odd he eats fine and has a bowl of water deep enough to clean his nostrils. it sounds almost wet or gurgly when he breathes, but not always.
on a side note the poor little guy somejow hurt his leg and the connectom between leg and foot is swollen snd...
thank you for all your replies, I've decided tethering was definitely not a good idea and have asked my neighbor to secure their side of the fence which they agreed to.I'm getting a new coop for my 2 hens now and am investing in a better run. thank you all so much :)
my flock of 5 has now been reduced to a flock of two. we just got some new neighbors with SIX big dogs. they somehow managed their way into the coop, poor girls. ive secured the fence now but am afraid my girls will leave to the other side of the fence accidentally with the dogs. is it possibke...
our mama hen hatched 3 of 5 eggs we let her sit on, 2 were fine while the mamá left the nest with the healthy 2 and left a little one still hatching. it hasn't gotten as much warmth and barely got out of the shell, while the other 2 are puffy, this one is still wet and peeping. she refuses to...
