Wow just been looking at your Sebs they are absolutely stunning. Wonder if you can give me a bit of advice, I have read that Sebastopols aren't great layers or parents? How would you say they compare to the other breeds? I have Embden which proved to be excellent layer last year and toulouse...
Hi thanks very much for your post RURU, your sebastopols are beautiful. I'm going to either sell or separate the ganders in the mating season, I have heard they fight - last year I only had one gander and he was very brutal ripping the females feathers out so I can quite imagine they males will...
He had lost alot of weight when he went off his feet but he has put it back on he's alot bigger than in this pic, this pic was taken just after his injections when he first got up :))))
Hi Miss Lydia,

I have a breeding pair now, got him a stunning curly goose. :) We also have...
Hi just had a look at your link thanks very much, might well be worth me getting niacin to give him too. Let me know how your gander goes please hopefully they'll both be back up in no time :)
Hi Miss Lydia thanks for asking after Sebastian, he is alot better on his feet & even went for a swim today. I went out and bought Verm X keep well pellets to mix in with his feed, Multi vitamin & mineral conditioning liquid and Verm X liquid for intestines to mix in his drinking water. I have...
Thanks Miss Lydia,
thankfully he is eating and drinking well but still I'm really worried & nervous to give flush but will follow to a T. I haven't gave him niacin or brewers yeast when he was younger, my last gander raised from a gosling developed angel wing from I'v been told off too much...
My Sebastopol gander hatched this year around feb/march (about 5 month old) has been off his feet for 2 days he can't even stand up his legs just go limp. I have recently wormed all my geese with flubenvet it said to worm them 7 consecutive days in a row but i stopped after about 3 days when i...
Hi sorry i hadn't replied, I've only just noticed your post. Good move taking the eggs to incubate, it sounds like they're definately being killed. Do you have any ganders? As I've heard ganders will kill any young that arent there's
Hi everyone I read somewhere on here that you can tell if a sebastopol gosling is going to be smooth or curly due to the way the tail feathers go. This is Sebastian, I need to pair him up with a Sebbie goose but in order to pair a smooth and curly I need to know what he is before I can order a...
She will get used to Lady if they are introduced more regular :) I wouldn't mind pet and house sitting all summer if a pool like that was involved haha I'd never be out of it. Not suprised she made a bee line 4 it, I bet u've got her spoilt, my little Seb is spoilt rotten - he was the only egg...
I took Jemima's nest away & she knew she wasn't gonna get chance to keep more cos she just laid the eggs on the grass instead of hiding them in the end. I'm glad I did that cos she had me worried as i'd heard laying too many could cause her harm. You know it's a feather in your cap Miss Lydia as...
