    raccoon question about coops

    Do you put hardware cloth over top of your pens? Or do you put it in the ground?

    Racoon control

    I do have an energizer and I'm going to buy some more wire tomorrow and hopefully put it together ( think it's supposed to rain). I do have a large run. Thank you for the reply. Cindy

    Racoon control

    I am not currently working and can't afford the hardware wire that soooo many say to put around their pens. Can you think of anything else that could serve the same purpose as the hardware cloth? I also was wondering what I could put around the 4 by 4 poles that they can climb up on. Any info...

    I don't know how she's doing. I'm trying to wait until Monday to call the rehab guy. I'm hoping that he'll call me first. I don't want him to think that he can keep my gosling. I hope she's doing better and hasn't left this world. I think he should have called by now, he's had her since...

    How much Brewers yeast and apple cider vinegar do you put on their food or in their water? Is there such a thing as too much or too little? Thank you for the caring! Cindy

    Sick African goose

    I hope that I did the right thing. I'm questioning myself now. I wound up carrying her to an avian vet and she took her and gave her fluids and then they took her to a rehabilitation place to get well. Couldn't I have done this? I'm mad as hell at the avian vet now because she told me that...

    I'm going to bring her in. I'm sure there's something I can put her in. I just hope she's still alive when I go out there this morning. It's too dark now. She drank all of her pedialyte yesterday. But she was on her back again one more yesterday when I checked on h er. I'm also taking her...

    Sick African goose

    Hello everyone, I know what you mean about getting help. I know people are busy and some people haven't experienced what we've experienced. I know some people have access to the funds to build nice pens and elaborate housing for their feathered babies, but I DONT. I sometimes wish that I...

    Yes, Thank you, he's much better. Now I have a gosling that can't stand and walk very well. She keeps on falling over. She is eating and drinking water pretty well when she's by herself. I'm thinking about giving her pedialyte. Do you think it's ok? I gave her polyvisol yesterday and she...

    Ill goose

    Hi! Well, he is much better today! Now my gosling is ill. She's eating her feed and a little grass. I put vitamins in the water and everyone but her are drinking it. I'm going to try to open her bill and give her 4 drops of the polyvisol. Hope she'll get better. I haven't had any sick...

    Ill goose

    My goose is probably around 2 years old. I've only had him a year now. I wonder if he eat some plywood or something like that. He's acting pretty good now. He was an hour ago. I'm going to try the mash. He's just picking at the feed. (Purina layena and he eats some Grower that I have for...

    Ill goose

    My african goose isn't acting quite right. He seems weak. This morning everyone was pushing him down. He's better now and he's just nibbling on his feed but loves his water and his greens. Is it alright for him to just eat greens? Can I give him polyvisol or something to help him along? I...

    Sick African goose

    I have a large pen with a door that is never closed. They are outside almost all of the time but only have access to grass when I let them graze. He was doing fine and all of the sudden this happens. He's nibbling on feed but loves greens and grass. Is this ok for him to eat? He's drinking...

    Thanks for your reply. I'm not getting many answers. I'll try the feed store here in town. I live in such a small city in North Carolina, it's hard to get anything here. There's no Avian vet and I have to drive about hours to get him to one. Tried today but he wasn't for the car ride...
