    Guard geese for ducks

    My 2 geese grew up among adults ducks- 3 pekin & 1 muscovy. Set up an outside brooder with chicken wire so lots of look&see moments as the goslings were growing. Lots of treat time with all involved around the chicken wire. All 3 pekin hens took the goslings under their wings when they outgrew...

    Can I introduce African Geese with my Duck flock?

    Every situation varies...I've got 2 geese hanging out with my ducks. An African & an Emblem, introduced to the duck flock as goslings while the ladies (3 peking & a muscovy) were at least 1yo. Geese and peking get along fine- I call them The Pack. It's the pekings who call the shots while the...

    Where’s the best hatchery to buy assorted geese.

    Holderread Waterfowl Farm if you are wanting purebred. I ordered 2 assorted goslings & got an Emblem and an African. Totally delighted that they were both females. Had also gotten Welsh Harlequin ducklings from them the previous year and loved their coloring - more vivid in the Silvers and...

    advice for first time gosling owner?

    Cut them up and placed on top of the wet feed or on top of water pail, as well as other weeds; you're their mama, so gotta show them how. If you intro all weeds to them before 6wks of age....they will certainly develop quite a palate. Ended calling my 2 girls after all the weeds in my yard-...

    Adding goslings to my Muscovy flock

    I raised 2 Toulouse (females) with 5 Muscovies (2 males and 3 females) & 5 Pekins (females) last year - outside brooder with heat lamp until feathered with they're own run. The integration was easy since they were set up in the same run with an established flock of chickens and adult Welsh...

    Muscovy owners!

    :eek: So I knew they flew.....and then wondering if clipping the wings would deter the flying part, but wow! Guess it might be just a waste of time now. But my question is... how destructive are your muscovies outside of the fence? Like tearing apart your vegetable garden? Eating up your...

    Muscovy Drake Fight Question!

    Haven't seen my drakes fight as well. Have 2 males at 5 months old. They'll hiss and maybe a nip or two, but the lessor always gives in, so pecking order has already been established.

    Topic of the Week - Managing Brooding Geese

    A couple days!?! How nerve racking! I'd worry that if the babies weren't accepted by the next morning, I'd be looking at a dead/injured baby waterfowl before the 2nd night, but I'm thinking chicken mamas and not goose mamas so I may be comparing apples to oranges.:idunno But it seems like...

    How long do call duck eggs need to be incubated before taking them into lock down?

    Wow! I’m floored about chickens brooding over duck eggs! Not to change the subject.....but how do they do towards the end of a longer-duck-incubating period? Especially as you hit lockdown? Do you anything special w/ eggs like misting them?
