Please, I need to find a very good home for my 2 female Toulouse geese who are 2 years old. They are sweet, don't attack, never have. They are mates and if separated, I think one or both would die. My husband and I are both in our 60's and since I am disabled, he must take care of them. We are...

Duck duck goose....ducks!!!

Love my feathered friends although I am a very lonely person. Love BYC site!! You people are awesome. Always make my day brighter. Thanks :)

I love birds of any breed. Presently I have 3 exotic parrots, 2 from local breeders 22 yrs & 17 yrs, had from 5 weeks old, & one a rehome; 2 chickens, 2 geese. Have had ducks (love love), 2 geese that lived 22 years and 2 parrots when I was 20 something. I also love iguanas & turtles. Want to...

None of the above. Fruit, vegetables and my girls' eggs.

Wow!! Glad that I found this thread. What kind of flashlight and how bright? I was checking my hen's eggs yesterday and some I could not even see through; others were transparent. Love the picture of the duckling with the chicken...so sweet :)

Love your pictures, roostersandhens! :) Nice.

Hope that you are prepared because if you do get a duck and then a Drake, look out!! LD had 15 babies in the bushes and I rehomed all to a lady who had a small lake on her land, as our home and land is only 1/3 of an acre. And the drake, poor guy, went with them. Then about 2 months later, I...

Welcome!! Ducks are so fun and sweet. Found a baby duck at our local lake; she was just a little chick. It was sunset and she was swimming backwards, head bobbing. No mommy in sight. Took her home and Wildlife center said that she wouldn't make it through the night. She lived with us for 16...

Well, my silly Toulouse geese are not putting themselves in the coop at dusk, although they do stand at the ramp and wait for me to come out. I just have to open my arms and then they both lumber into the coop :) No more chasing them around. Maybe one of these nights, they will go in all by...

WELCOME from the Central Coast of California and to BYC! :)

Hi. Welcome to BYC :) I have had geese for over 20 years. Scratch does not have any beneficial nutrients. It is mainly used to digest the proper food in the crop of the goose and is just corn. No "real" nutrition. Go buy some good medicated pellets at your local feed store and if you don't have...

Hello and welcome to the "world of geese." I have 2 Toulouse geese, 8 months old, since fuzzy little peepers. They are mates now and tame, even the gander. But, in the past, I had a cross between a Pilgrim & Egyptian gander and, boy, he was was the best protection for my ducks and thought every...

Would love to have a couple silkies for my eldest hen, as she is so docile and needs a very gentle friend to hang out with. :) Read that silkies are sweet. What beautiful hens, and that rooster is a very handsome guy. Good job!!
