How long does is this hatching going to take??
Well folks, this is crazy and I do not know what to do. At 5:30 this morning, the mama goose woke me up with her chattering. She was off her nest and chatting away. I opened the window and found the stench of rotten egg. I had planed on taking the eggs way today as this is the 38th day. It was... -

How long does is this hatching going to take??
Tomorrow it will have been 39 day of sit time. In the morning, I will figure out a way to get her to leave the nest and I will remove the eggs. It is quite disappointing to see 14 eggs go to waste. I figure that I will crack them open one at a time and if I discover life, I'll put the rest of... -

A coulpe more things... She is still turning her eggs a few times a day, even today. I can't see all of the eggs, but I don't think she has kicked any out of her nest. -
How long does is this hatching going to take??
I can't get to the nest without loosing an arm, eye and a couple of fingers. LOL She is very protective. However, I can see the nest when she stands, so I know they haven't hatched. I am certain of the dates. I kept a log and her nest is in a dog crate right outside my bedroom window. My... -

How long does is this hatching going to take??
Hi.... My first goose (Toulouse) has been sitting on her 15 eggs for 36 days. Last night, on the 35 day, at 8:30 p.m., I discovered that one egg had hatched. What a cutie! I hope it's a male because I named it Spanky. ;>) Anyway, I have been watching for most of today and the other 14 eggs... -

Thank you. We have been feeding all-purpose poultry food, that the feed store guy said would be fine. I did check the ingredients and it does include niacin, but the % is not listed. We feed the babies chick starter and the adults all-purpose and have been doing this for about a year. My wife... -

Quote: Thank you. No, she's 3 months old and not laying eggs. She will now be supervised on everything until she makes it or dies.... I am not sure how well ducks travel, but if she gets well during our month of travels, she is going to have a wonderful and luxurious vacation. LOL -

She gets niacin that comes in her food. BUT, yes, her legs are shaky. I called Metzer where we bought her and while she doesn't know what the problems might be, she suggested using a antibiotic, Baytril. Our feed-store doesn't have it but they do sell duramycin. Another feed-store has... -

We are getting ready to leave for vacation in the morning. We have just discovered that the one K. Campbell has a problem. She is a 3 month old Khaki Campbell. I can't find anything wrong with her feet or legs. She is calm and enjoys being held and petted. When she walks she crouches down and... -

Looking for some Goose Information
Hi, I have 4 Toulouse, one drake and 3 girls. I bought them from a private party about 8 months ago. They were between 6 months and a year old when I brought them home. They are simply charming and for the most part very quiet. They will now eat from my hand. During the day, I will yell from... -
Two drunk geese and a drunk duck..... watermelon wine??
Thank you, Folks. I really appreciate your time on this. I'm new to all of this and I'm loving it, except when I lose one. When I first noticed that something was going on, I was extremely concerned. As time went on and I began seeing a bit of improvement, it looked quite funny. If my crew... -

...been raising them in the house in a dog crate, until they get old enough to put with the non-related adults. Today the weather was great here, 60* or more, so I took them outside for exercise and a dip in their pool (new small oil change pan). I like playing with them and I have done this... -
