Hello! I am wondering why my 2 year old white Chinese goose has never laid an egg.
I have 2 geese and 1 gander, they are all the same age and I am absolutely positive of their sex.
One of the geese started laying when she was 7 months old (January 2022) and started laying again this season on March 15th. She has laid very consistently since then. The other goose has never laid.
Everything I've read led me to believe 1 gander to 2 geese was a good ratio. Is it possible she needs a gander of her own? However, even if he wasn't mating with her, shouldn't she just lay the (unfertilized) eggs anyway?
I am lost! I'd appreciate any insight or advice.
Thanks!!
