    My gaggle wanted to speak with the manager! Haha.

    Hey BYC Family! Well, today my geese for sure wanted to speak to the manager because I was making way more racket than they were with the trimmer and it was simply unacceptable for them. Haha. Hope everyone had a great day. ✨✨ Attached a couple photos of them and my beautiful drake.

    Its me again! Two questions in one... Is this normal gosling behavior and will they forget me?

    Hello! Probably this has been asked before, but here we go! My goslings everytime I reach into their brooder start running like crazy. Funny things is, when I speak to them they "speak" to me back as if they recognize me. Once I take them out of the brooder to go out on our little excursions...
