    When can my baby geese swim?

    Wow thank you everyone for the great replies! I've learned quite a bit! Last night I bathe my goslings in the sink and blow dried them on low. :D The temperature here is around 60 degrees in the daytime.

    When can my baby geese swim?

    I have sebastopol goslings. :) They are getting a bit dirty thanks to their food and now their neck feathers need cleaning (and there heads lol) I was making sure it was okay to put them in shallow water. I don't want them to drown! I'm guessing it won't be safe for the to swim in the pond until...

    When can my baby geese swim?

    Hello everyone. I have week old chicks and I was wondering when they can safely swim. I'd love it if someone could let me know! Thank you!

    So I had a successful hatch and then three days later, one of them dies-

    Thank you! I pulled up some grass from outside and gave it to all of them. They LOVE it. I'll buy some leaf lettuce as well. I hope your gosling pulls through. :( It's really sad when they die.

    So I had a successful hatch and then three days later, one of them dies-

    Thank you for the reply. It doesn't make me happy (I can't bring back the poor baby T_T). At least I didn't do anything wrong durning incubation. I just don't want anyone else to die. I spend hours crying over the poor thing. I'm feeding them...

    So I had a successful hatch and then three days later, one of them dies-

    I bought sebastopol geese eggs from ebay. Twelve. In the end seven hatched and I was very happy. I decided that I would keep two as pets and sell the other five here on BYC. Everything was going well, although I noticed one of the chicks didn't chirp constantly like the others. From the moment...

    Hi! Welcome to BYC! It's nice to meet you! This is a great place and you will love it here. I love geese and if I had ducks I'm sure I'd love them too. :D I just hatched 7 out of 12 goose eggs a few days ago. They are bundles of joy!

    introduction for myself..

    Hi! Welcome to BYC! This is a great place and I'm sure you will enjoy your (long) stay here! I'm new myself but if it hadn't been for this site I would have never been able to hatch my goslings successfully.

    Baby goslings, care and questions

    Thank you very much! I just checked and the starter isn't medicated. I was worried I was killing them without even knowing it. Sorry about your goslings. :(

    Baby goslings, care and questions

    This was very informative. Thank you. I do have a question though. Chicken starter feed is not good for goose babies? I've had my geese for two days now (they just hatched) and I bought chicken starter feed from tractor supply. Is this going to hurt them?

    About to buy!

    Welcome to BYC! I'm very excited for you! I was just at Tractor Supply yesterday to buy bird feed for my geese. There were a ton of chicks there for sale and I was pretty tempted to buy a few. Only I haven't set up my coop yet! Good luck with your chickens!

    Welcome to the forum! I'm sorry about your old flock. D= I am planning to raise chickens for eggs and meat this summer (and hopefully beyond) and I was worried about predators too. Thankfully we don't have foxes here. I don't think we do at least... I wish I had some suggestions on how...

    Hi! I'm new here and I could use a little help!

    O_O How cruel. Why would someone dump them just because they grow up? D= I don't want to see them with someone who may abandon them! That's just terrible. It reminds me of Harry Potter and the owls. I heard that people bought owls as pets thanks to the movie and didn't do research on owls...

    Hi! I'm new here and I could use a little help!

    Thank you! They are just too adorable to ignore! Then they follow me around and then chirp super loud when I walk away. They want to sit in my lap and sleep. They like to eat EVERYTHING and I feel like I'm chasing after two year old. Overall this is a wonderful experience. I can wait to start...

    Michigan Thread - all are welcome!

    I have 7 sebastopol goose. Only keeping two of them though! They just hatched two days ago. The two I'm keeping have already imprinted on me. They are so cute! Later this summer I want to raise chickens for eggs and meat. I have to get my coop together before I can do this though!
