    Fresh Corn on the Cob for Goose?

    I was about to say that you should pretend to eat it first and then they will usually follow suit. Geese are picky, mine love watermelon but won’t eat any type of berry or cucumber. They love apples and brussel sprouts on the stem. Good luck

    Can this marriage be saved?

    I’m not sure if this will help but my neighbor installed a water system in his coop. He tapped into his sprinkler system and he has thin tubes with small spickets than run around the inside of the coop.

    @Goosebaby Thanks for the wonderful treat ideas. You’re a great help and I appreciate the article you sent too. I think I’ll just stay away from bird seed and add a few sunflower seeds from time to time. I’ll try some of your other suggestions too. I just want her to have a fun and healthy...

    @Goosebaby you always give good advice so I’ll just ask u. Can geese eat figs? It’s so hard to find a proper list of foods for them. She loves watermelon but hates cucumbers. I think they kinda taste alike, Wilhelminia disagrees. She also won’t eat raspberries and the verdict is still out on...
