Hoping to learn how you handled your problem back in 2015 with your ducks. I have a few suggestions for you, but I'm sure you've solved your problem by now.

I know your post is 2 years old, but I was wondering if you could Let me know how your fresh water system is still working out for you? Is it possible to supply pictures and give deminsions of your system? Out of all the ideas posted I like yours the best. Do you live in in an area where you...

They free range over 7 acres and usually spend the majority of the day in one of our two ponds. They are as stress free as they can get. The two geese have a favorite duck they are sparring over. Never mind that there is another little duck who I call the wallflower standing in the sidelines...

I was afraid of that. Thanks so much for your advise.

I have a white Chinese goose and a brown Chinese goose that are now fighting each other. Can they seriously hurt each other to the point where I should find a new home for one of them? During the day they can get away from each other, but during the night they are in a secured run where they...

Thanks.

"Lets see if @jchny2000 has any ideas." How do I go about getting his attention to read these posts? I'm still learning how to navigate the forum. Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

"My female goose talks to her eggs - and anything else egglike - in a throaty, calm voice; something like a hoarsely whispered "Hhhrarrrf". She also uses that sound when checking out nest locations and when building her nest. The lower, hoarser voice sounds to me like your Peepers is a goose...

"In the goose world ganders are the odd balls. They will at times try to raise small ducks and will take over any gosling that is given them.It maybe counting the eggs. I have seen ganders do this.Not sure if they are really counting but it does look like it." Interesting! I appreciate the...

Hi, Deep down I'm thinking Peepers is a male as well, but hoping against hope for female. Any ideas why he/she croons over a nest of eggs? The nest belongs to two ducks that each give me an egg everyday. I collect the eggs but always leave the 3 golf balls in the nest so they don't get mad at...

I have a 13 week old brown Chinese goose that I've named Peepers. I still don't know if this goose is male or female, but he/she sure mimics our 18 month old white Chinese gander in body language, has the same long neck, is about the same size as the gander but the nose knob isn't as large and...

I needed this bit of advice to use on my very aggressive goose. I have been aggressive back to him, but need to be more so and do it more consistently. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. If I do this its gonna take my husband & I both to handle Peepers. I haven't had contact with Peepers since he/she was one week old at which time I gave Peepers back to the surrogate mother duck. When this goose was 1 or 2 days old I vent sexed it and another baby goose...

Can anyone tell the sex of this brown Chinese goose just by looking at it? Peepers is 4 months old with a deeper hoarse voice, but acts very much like Frankie the white male Chinese goose. I am hoping Peepers is a she, otherwise I might have to fine another home for it. Thanks.

I counted 23 I think. She sat on the nest a couple times today, but I'd say she was off more than she was on. I hope she has gone broody. :). She was on tonight again when I closed the birds up for the night. This is all new to me. I got the birds as keets a year ago in April and they've...

I have a guinea that has layed eggs in a nest inside the run. Just recently she as begun sitting on them at night but not during the day. Is this normal and does it mean she is broody? Thanks for possible advise. Suzanne

This baby had problems from the beginning when he was hatching. I helped him just a little when he was hatching and when I turned the egg over he plopped out, so I guess he was ready to come out. There was also a terrible smell from the shell and this smell still lingers on him. I wonder if...
