    Goose Behavior At Night?

    OK, I have small problem and I need help with a solution! My trio of geese (American pair and a single blind goose, sex unknown) currently enjoy their nights locked up in a converted indoor/outdoor dog kennel. They will sometimes go into the inside part, but spend most of their night in the...

    Peacock Predators?

    Hi all, I've been toying with the idea of getting a Peacock. I'm not sure if I want to free range (I have dogs, so this would be iffy) or build a pen. We have plenty of space for a pen, but I always thought most of the fun of having Peafowl is to see them wondering about the yard. :-)...

    Chickens+Heat+Fans??

    OK, so it is HOT today, and is going to be HOT today, so my husband was kind enough to set up the box fan with an extension cord at the front of the coop, so it's blowing (on the lowest setting) across the coop near the door (they can get out of it if they want, it's not blowing "into" the coop...

    Will My Cochin Hen Raise My New Chicks?

    I bought 2 Polish chicks today at a swap, they can't be any older than a couple of days. I want to integrate them into my flock of Cochins (which are kept penned for most of the day), I would like to give them to one of my broody hens, but I'm not sure exactly how to go about it. Can it be...

    Blind Goose With Watery Eyes

    OK, I have a goose that is blind, who went to live somewhere else for a few days (eyes were fine when he left) and when I got him back his eyes looked like this (see pics), very watery, he doesn't seem to want to open them, he's scratching at them also. Both eyes look just like this. The place...

    Depressed Goose? PLEASE HELP

    Is This a Toulouse?

    Hey everyone, I got this gosling as one of my bargain goslings from Holderreads, I was thinking it was a Toulouse (they don't tell you what kind you are getting in the assortments) but I saw some pictures of Pilgrims and now I am confused. Is it possible he/she is a mix? He's completely...

    Nest Box Size For Cochins?

    My husband is just about finished with the coop (YAY), and he's saving the nest boxes for last. I was out looking at it today and told him I think the space allowed for the nest boxes (which will be accessible from the outside) are too small. Can anyone tell me what size nest boxes should be...
