Help, I have noticed my goose is laying more than usual. I was watching her this morning and she is not standing up anymore. I stud her up myself and she walked, still eating and drinking, but she is eating alot of dirt.. Also noticed when she waged her tail she fell down. I don't have anything...

I went out and bought some straw put the bales around the nest she made with an old swimming pool for the roof. She didn't have anything to do with it until yesterday when she was inside putting the final touches on her nest and laid an egg. Mr. Goose stood guard outside of the opening like a...

Thanks for your concern. She died this morning while I was trying to make her more comfortable. She gave a little fight and just fell asleep. I learned a lot of stuff through the last two weeks of her life. She taught me how to care for my other goose if it ever gets ill or starts looking as if...
