    Coop design, wood or brick?

    Personally, I go mobile.. I had stationary coop before and I found that its just too heavy and my animals just stay in there for sleeping and laying eggs coz they are free range so they don't spend a lot of time in the chicken house. Also I use Premiere 1 electric fence in case I decided to move...

    Train 3 month old Embden Goose to not run away from humans?

    try walk next to them instead of approaching from the front. When you approach them from the front, they would run away. My geese don't run away when I approach them from front or side.. I guess they are used to me handling them everyday. Patience is the key. Also talk to them often. Good luck!

    Possum

    I just shoveled a possum that attacked my old layer. She cried so loudly... and when I saw her, I thought she was dead, so I hit the possum with a stick that did not make him budge. Eventually, I took a long spade and hit him hard.. still he did not budge.. when I left to pick something, I heard...
