    Do Geese get mites??? Is 7 Dust OK???

    You know I keep hearing if their coop and bedding is kept clean they won't get lice or mites. My girls are in a very large run at night inside a 3 sided pole barn. I clean their floor 3x a day if needed. Right now I have a dirt floor and put down large pine shavings for them at night. They...

    Goose transport case

    I think my chickens would be fine if I left for a few days but not my geese. I am changing out their water several times a day.

    Goose transport case

    Ok you really have my attention by traveling with them. Would love to know if they are leash trained? How far do you travel but most important; where do you keep them once you arrive? Loved " reactions when they knew they were being watched by geese"!🤣

    I'm not going to survive through raising these babies

    Oh my gosh- every couple of days? I have two brooders. One with 5- 1 polish buff lace, 2 buff brahmin, 2 wynadottes. They are messier than my other brooder with 11 silkies. I clean their pads 2x per day at least. You are lucky. I have beautiful pine flakes but to me they intensify the smell...

    Is SANDEZIA POWDER safe to use around geese?

    Anyone use this? I have a dirt floor run just for securing geese overnight and thought this would help with ammonia build up? Can anyone recommend a safe waterfowl/poultry disinfectant? You can also mix with water. Kills a very long list of bacterias/fungi as well. Thanks so much!!!

    Has anyone used this powder in chicken run/coops or with geese? It is a disinfectant killing many harmful bacteria. Thanks!

    Food and Water at Night for Goslings

    You guys are free ranging? Do you not need to worry about hawks or owls? I guess a full adult goose is too large? My goslings are 51/2 weeks old and want to let them out to free range even with me there but am worried about hawks and owls. I have every predator except bears and mountain lions.

    Female Silkies for sale

    I did and probably won't be happy with them. Out of desperation I ordered from Strombergs which I have since learned is awful from the many reviews I've read. I just hope they survive the shipping. You have some beautiful babies! Thanks for responding🙂
