I keep oyster shell out year round for my layers and when Missy my goose begins to lay she eats it too. Very good idea to keep it out.Those two are so pretty and stoic. What are their names?
I can't see it? Is it a nest of cinder blocks in the back? I admittedly have bad eyes, I didn't notice my goose had nested either. I do see something near the front that looks like and egg, but still not sure.
Funny that you mention the calcium, those geese usually don't show any interest in the eggshells I toss out for them, but I noticed since I found the nest she has been excited to snatch them out of my scrap bucket before I can put them in the feed dish. It's a good idea, I will have to go dig out my hanging feeder and give her her own dish of oyster shell too. I also noticed the swim/poop thing when we had the pools out during the summer. Pretty sure the plug thing won't be too difficult to put into the trough if it doesn't have one. I think those big suckers come with one in it, I will just have to go out and investigate to find it.
