    Goose house pics

    I have four Brown Chinese. The doors are 36" high and 16" wide. I can squeeze in if needed, so I would imagine a larger goose could fit too ;)

    Is this angel wing?

    Three out of four goslings have completely normal wings now!!! One of the little guys still has a gap. Do I rewrap or will this correct itself? He constantly keeps hitching the left wing (his left) up like its bugging him somehow.

    Is this angel wing?

    I will either be an expert wraper or the goslings will declare mutiny and lock me up somewhere.

    Is this angel wing?

    ...and a third developed angel wings overnight. Mazuri Waterfowl Starter sounded like such a good idea in the beginning. Oh well, I have lived and I have learned, que sera sera

    Angel wing in ducks, & how we wrap to mend it - Pictorial

    You wrap all the way around the wing once and then figure 8 it to the body, correct? How do you wrap if it is in both wings? Wrap wing #1 and then figure 8, then wrap wing #2 and figure 8 it again? I was never good at arts and crafts. ;)

    Is this angel wing?

    I know there are thousands of these angel wing threads, but I am a newbie to waterfowl so please forgive... Goslings are 33 days old at this point. Fed a diet of Mazuri Waterfowl Starter since arrival, supplemented with greens and allowed out to graze a few hours each day. One is developing...

    Goose house pics

    I wondered about the gravel hurting their feet too after we went on a walk-about yesterday and they really did NOT like the gravel along the edge of the driveway. Thought about sand...but that would probably erode quickly when cleaning the pool. I have no clue on ventilation for Colorado...here...

    Goose house pics

    Thanks for the complements and advice! These are my first waterfowl, so I am a newbie to all of this and appreciate any help. They have two black shade cloths on them now, but I am searching for white or tan...in this heatwave, the black colors seems to be absorbing and radiating too much heat...

    Goose house pics

    My pics are LATE...but everything is LATE in my life right now. Lol. Lots of things to do and not enough time! My brother took sympathy on my goslings being forced to live in a house of my making...so he took over, built them a house in his shop, loaded it on a trailer and brought it...
