Right on. I have some very minor experience with fiberglass repair (pool and hot tub mechanic for 16 years) ...enough that I'll stay away from it unless I 'need' to. lol.

what latitude are you? in regards to freezing temps and the water that would be in the pipe from the drain to the ball valve? I'm in southern Indiana and while the winter was overall warm, we did have a week of 0 to minus 3 at night. I completely drained the tank and they did w/o during that...

re: space. They are in a space about 35'x45' (150 linear feet of mesh electric fencing.) I'm going to add another section of fencing this summer when I go to shift their location around the field which I aim to do quarterly or so. I've kept the silver sheep tank but 'lifted' the bottom by 2"...

the current iteration of baby pools on the market are way too expensive juxtaposed to their ephemeral nature...fancy way of saying that $25 bucks for 5 cents of plastic that punctures easily has been tried once and won't happen again. I'll spend $18 dollars for the large size black mixing tray...

that's the direction I think I'm heading. I had already planned to just remove eggs as they appeared...still not thinking I would see any till next spring. I recently modified their main hutch by hinging the roof for easy access to cleaning and checking for eggs. In general, they are not...

interesting in that at the same time all these other shennanigans have been happening I had noticed a decided increase in water loss from the water bucket...and then observed a female trying to bathe it it...which prompted me to add the second, bigger pond.

of course not. they have the larger size flat back bucket as their drinking water, refreshed at least twice a day most days...they muck it up quick. the stock tanks were for their entertainment. we started with a blue kiddie pool but the poked a hole in it quick. I built a wood 'log cabin' to...

So far, none of these geese have been aggressive to either of us. I was around them every day since we got them at 8 weeks'ish. My wife dubbed me the 'Goose Father' (in a nod to Terry Pratchett) as when they were young and in their 8x16 pen at night and 5x10 tractor during the day, I...

@Miss Lydia Hi, I just want to make sure I understand what you said. IF I try to rehome, rehome the sub gander and leave the dominant one with the girls? Thanks. Right now, I think I'm going to try going with a shallower pond and see if they will work it out w/o killing each other. I am on...

Thanks for everyone's input. I've had two main thoughts: 1 - get rid of the water. The deep water at least and give them some shallow pools instead. So they don't have the added 'sexual aid' of the deeper water to float in. 2 - an Easter Goose dinner. and, after reading the latest posts...

Ok. That is what I was sort of thinking. But, they aren't even a year old till April. Would they be trying to breed this young? I thought I'd read they wouldn't start breeding till over 20 months. A pic of the set up. The red box on the left is their hutch. The gander that I think is being...

Hi, All. Last June we bought 4 geese (Pilgrims, theoretically. 2 female, 2 male) and I think 1 of the gander's is trying to kill the other. We have them in a space roughly 45'x35' enclose with electric netting. They have a ~4'x8' house open on one 4' end. They have had a 6'x2' stock tank...
