    Is this a dumped domestic goose?

    Runners? well My gander which is quiet a bit heavier than your Chinese mated for 5 years with Muscovy who weigh tops at 4-5 lbs. they didn't seem to mind one bit and he never hurt one. I know you want to find him a home but I don't think he would hurt your ducks as long as they have water to...

    Is this a dumped domestic goose?

    Sounds like your making progress and listen I bet alot geese that get dumped is because who ever had them didn't take the time to try to train, and miss out on having a wonderful member of their flock. My gander seems to be testing me more and more each day. and has come close to nipping me but...

    Yes he is in safe hands, you are a hero for rescuing him, I shudder thinking about his fate if he had stayed much longer there.

    Is this a dumped domestic goose?

    Tracy honestly with having my gander for over 7 yrs now I do feel bad I have to dicipline him but YOU have to let them know they cannot bite or nip the one who cares for them or any other person in the family. And he maybe lonely but he has accepted the ducks as his flock for now so that is...

    Is this a dumped domestic goose?

    Very true Tracey, or after rescuing him someone would take him to eat. I know geese are food for some but after all he's been through he deserves better than to be on someones table.

    Tracy he looks great and may have just eaten too much and drank too much water. Sounds like he is settling in. I agree on gander being so great about adopting ducklings.

    Is this a dumped domestic goose?

    I wouldn't hand feed her Tracy because they can get carried away and believe it those serrated bills can hurt. That maybe one reason why she is biting, it happens when people hand feed. if she young it just maybe her way of testing out new things my gosling at 3 months old love to nibble on my...

    Is this a dumped domestic goose?

    My goose vibrate their necks to it maybe from just being stressed. if she is eating grass and that's really the main stay of geese then she is settling down. and I don't put feed and water inside with my water fowl at all. I don't think she could be in better hands. How does she act around you...

    romaine lettuce for one, chop and put in her water. geese are very hardy and she looked healthy in the pic. do you think someone may have injured the other and caused it's death. People can be so cruel. I'm glad you have her Tracey. Give her time she may not understand about the food but...
