    Biting goose-mum

    My gosling happily nibbles bites and chews me. I just wondered whether goslings do this to their real bird mum as well. If they do, poor girl!

    3 month old peafowl. Food? UK

    My peafowl hatched in February making them at least 3 months old now. I've read they should be on Game Grower 2 now. Finding this not as simple to buy in the UK as that sounds. Can anyone recommend a feed/brand available in the UK?

    Goose friend

    I have a 10 day old Sebastopol gosling. I'm pretty sure she's a female from her fluff. I read the post about not having lone geese. I'd planned on integrating her with my ducks and peacocks but the article says she'll be unhappy without another goose. If I do decide to get another goose...

    What duckling is this?

    Saw this beautiful duckling on a review of a feed. What is it? Google lens has suggested Magpie duck? I love the feet and the bill!

    Chick crumb

    I have a 7 day old Sebastopol gosling. My son accidentally gave her food to our peacocks so I had to rush to the store to get her some food. I got this. Is this OK to feed her?

    Ducklings via post UK

    I had been incubating x6 mandarin/Carolina wood ducks. x4 of the eggs were infertile, leaving me with just two. They both died yesterday due to shrinkwrapping, despite my best efforts to save them. I keep seeing videos from the US where they receive a box of ducklings in the mail. Is there...

    Goose egg day 28

    Never incubated/hatched geese before. I have 2 Sebastopol geese on day 28. One egg wobbles a fair bit, not seen anything from the other one. They're in with x2 mandarin ducks who are on day 29. I've just put a safety hole in one which pipped 24h ago and one in the other. Both wobbling now...

    Trimming Peafowl claws

    I have two Peafowl who are approaching 3 months old. Just moved them outside to a pen (10-14 days ago perhaps). Been going well, been letting them out periodically and supervising them. Just bumming around in the garden, bit too skittish to explore. Been out during the day for last 3 days, no...

    Have I killed them?

    I'm currently incubating 2 Sebastopol Goose eggs. I've never done geese before and am new to cooling. They're on Day 14 now I think. Took them out and sprayed them. Meant to leave them for 15 minutes but I forgot and didn't realise until they'd been out for I'd estimate 45 minutes. Room 23.5...

    Disability aids

    My Peachick has a problem with her leg. Took her to vets but all they offered was murder. I've tried to help her myself but been unsuccessful due to being unable to sedate her. She hops around on the good leg but this is now a bad leg as she got bumble foot and now hops around on her...

    Chicken Birdy Booties UK

    I really need some chicken booties for one of my birds. Tried fashioning something myself but it wasnt good enough. The duck ones are readily available in the UK but I cant get the ones with toes, which is the essential bit. Last resort posting on here to see if anyone has any secret links that...

    Post-fight

    I have three peachicks, about 5 weeks old now I think. One we call 'Pecky' because his instinct is to peck everything. As a 2 day old chick he pecked the eye of one of the others requiring a vet's visit. Problem solved with Peck Blinders. They're a bit feisty with each other, but generally only...

    Peachick sedation/anaesthesia

    Hello all, After lurking for a fair while I decided to join to ask for some advice. I have hatched 3 peafowl, but one has a significant injury to it's leg. I thought it was spraddle/splay leg to begin with, so I hobbled her which seemed to help, one leg seemed fine after this, but it was clear...
