We have been finding larger than normal eggs in the chicken coup. I just figured we have one healthy mudder of a chicken. Our chicken coup is currently shared at night with two of our young geese. Well much to our surprise we find our baby goose JoLee sitting a nest. She's been laying eggs for a...

Never heard of mazuri waterfowl food but will surely look into it. Mr. Berdie is way better today. He is having a hard time walking. Wobbles and falls over but he is more alert and active. I put some oats and water in a bowl and he mopped it up. Not a lot but at least he is trying to eat...

They looked in his mouth and in his neck but I can't say they looked in his crop or not. I am so inexperienced here. I do remember her saying that one of the meds would help clean him out.

Thank you to all. Your replies and concern only show your love for these animals. I elected to take Berdie to the vet Friday. I ended up finding a vet that wasn't too far away that actually treated birds. She was a great vet. Cost wasn't crazy either. I get this bird in the vet and he opens his...

When we tried to do the Epsom salt/water last night with a syringe he appeared to not be swallowing and then looked like he was breathing out his nostrils. Water (maybe) was coming out his nostrils. Like his nose was running. Wouldn't open his mouth. Thank you so much. I'll be doing this this...

He's the same. I'm going to get the charcoal and try it. I'm not sure how to say this cuz I a m not well versed in geese but here goes. What are my options in getting his mouth open. If he breathes only out his nostril will the charcoal restrict that? Know what I'm trying to say. Don't want to...

Berdie was a healthy, happy, crazy running goose that followed me everywhere and talked to me. I just let him run in another yard. Nothing was there so I thought that could hurt him. Maybe some dirty water if anything. Now he looks like he’s dying. A complete change of health. I found him in...

Thank you.

Here are my first born chicks after I got hens and a rooster. Very cool. I was surprised to see a white one. Once I read here more about them I realized that could happen. The chicks are now about three months old.

Thanks for the reply. I totally missed how to add pictures. Here are my two Easter Eggers. They are now about three months old.

We had two Easter Egger chicks born and they are growing up nicely. I now have four – two hens and two chicks. Three of them are the gold/brown color and one came out white. I have now read here that there are white ones. In the post I read the white one was a rooster. Pardon my lack of...

My geese at the homestead.

I have a rooster "Brutus" who became a mean lil sucker. Not so much to me but to the hens. He had his lil flock and bit the other hens pretty bad. I built him a pen of his own and a nesting area for at night. I let him out every few days to be with the hens. I want to get chicks out of it. Is...

Well I have sad news. Our gosling has died. I have no idea why and just a bit broke up right now. I got up this morning to tend to the animals and I usually take him out for a stroll. He was limp and couldn't stand up. I brought him inside and came here to read. I did some of the suggestions...

When and how do we move the gosling to be with the adults? Is there a time frame and/or build a new pen for it within the pen of the adults. Took the lil critter out for it's first stroll in the yard. I laughed so hard. Came running and followed me. Pure fun.

We have an African Grey goose that is about three years old. We have only had her for one year but that spanned two laying cycles. In 2015 she laid eggs but none hatched even though she sat on them. This year we figured she finished her laying cycle because she just sat on one egg all of a...
