Thank you for all your help and info.
Well I have just found someone who has some geese for sale. The off is one female or a pair (female/male) African Grey. Can you tell me if I should get the pair or just the female? I was thinking that if I got the pair the males would fight. Since I never...
gander 007. Thank you Thank you Thank you. Great info and I'm mirror hanging today. Love my Dolly so whatever I can do to make her happy makes me happy.
When you talk about the rice dry what do you mean? After it cooks it is wet huh? Moist I mean. I never thought of that which I will do for my goose. I cook rice all the time.
Awww man I only have one. She is my bud. I guess I have to get another. I like hearing stories about the geese. I really like this one and we have hang out but ya know I feel bad I haven't gotten her another friend. What is the area required for two? If you look at my pictures you will see where...
Thanks. This is my first goose. Besides learning from here I have no idea whats the scoop. I do know I like having her and do the best to make her comfortable. Thanks again.
So you don't put yours up every night? Look your temp is way too cold for me but we have just had a freeze temp. I put her up each night in her lil house. She hates it and cries too. Sounds sad but I was sure that she would be warmer AND nothing would eat her. Is it ok to leave her out like...
Wow. Learn something new everyday. The reason I thought it was the rooster for sure was that only one hen is loosing feathers. Also she looks beat up not like she is shedding feathers. Trust me I saw that lil buck mount them hens. Funny I never seen him on the black hens just the two red ones I...
I did the search to find your post. I have had two hens for maybe two years. I bought two more hens and a rooster about 6 months or so ago. There really hasn't been a problem but I started seeing black feathers everywhere and one of my older hens has been losing them. My wife suspected the...
I gave Dolly watermellon and she didn't eat that eiother. Dog gone finicky goose. lol. I have not tried pumpkin or squash though - I will. I'll get some more and try and see if she changes her mind. At my house whatever the goose doesn't eat the chickens will. lol.
Oh this sounds so cool. I can see that ALL of you enjoy the apples. Makes me want one now.
I guess I'll try to dice one up and hand feed Dolly. That might work. There I go spoilng her again. LOL.
Its neat to read how everyone is with thier animals. I never figured I would have any but now...
RURU,
I tried to give Dolly some grapes. To my surprise she wouldn't eat them. I cut them up and put them in her bowl with her food and alone in another bowl. No luck.

Ok I’m back. Finally. Lol.
Laurie,
I looked at the goose house you built. That is nice.
I think I have done my Dolly right. It’s not that big but way bigger than the dog house she was in. She just flat out grew it. I would say it’s about 4’x6’ and basically I tied it to the chicken coup...
One more thing please. I looked for the "Blue Seal Home Finisher" and I can't find it. Is it under another name or something? I have been using "Nutrena-Country Feeds-Chick Starter. I mix that with the oats. Is this good?
Well I never would have figured that I would have a "goose girlfriend". LoL. I have been working in and around her for sometime now. She is still squeamish at times but overall we have bonded. I talk at her or should I say "honk" at her. I feel silly but laugh at it none the less.
I tell you I...
Sorry I took so long to write back.
Me and Dolly are doing just fine. For the last three days I have been building her a new house. She just out grew that big dog house she was in. I hope to finish tomorrow and will post pics. She does some hard core fussing with me but she eats oats out my...
LOL. I love it. I never thought of any of that. I tried to give her canatalope one time but she didn't eat it. I'll be buying grapes in the morning for sure. Here I am with Dolly. I took her to another larger area to hang out. Seemed like she liked it. Also she didn't fuss at me in transit. I...
