    So had an unfortunate site this morning to 2 dead goslings and my muscovy :/ 3 of my other goslings are injured on the head and one has a broken wing tip. It really baffled me since i didn't hear anything last night. The dead scovys breast is eaten away no head or neck damage. The 2 goslings...

    Got 3 more goslings developing a dewlap already! This years goslings are interesting. Shows that the parents of these goslings have the proper dewlap gene. My muscovy is now bonding with the goslings so at least he has buddies now.

    If you crossed a Sebastopal Goose with a different domestic breed, could the offspring fly?

    I've had graylag crossed with 4 different goose breeds and only a random few could fly (very well). It depends on how well the flight feathers grow and how slim the geese will look. A greylag gander crossed with a Seb will give you a better chance of having geese that will fly. The gander...

    I knew it wasn't the foxes with the babies so my dog and i waited for the fox to get his meal. Once he got close enough my dog got a hold of him and they fought. I stopped my dog since I'm against dogs mauling animals and i grabbed the fox behind the neck. It played dead so it wasn't hard to...

Once the green feathers showed i knew straight away oh it's that green duck breed! (didn't know the name of the breed at that time haha). I love suprises and when ever you wait for...

    Flock are molting early this year. First time Ireland has a 3 week heatwave with temps in the mid to high 20s so I'm guessing thats why molting is a month early. Loving the weather though!

    The Cayuga duckling is so pretty i am going to ask for more duck eggs haha I will have Scovys and Cayuga ducks as my new addition :) Do you have a chance of having a buff gosling? I saw an ad of a pair of white african geese for sale in Belgium. They were €2000 for the pair?! Someone bought...

    How old

    Hey Flockfolks how's things, it all depends on the breeder, the parents of the goslings and the food you give. Good bloodline African geese will have goslings growing a dewlap at 6-10 weeks while other bloodlines will have goslings growing dewlaps at 9-18 months :) I've bred African geese for...

    I past a seller today and i saw this drake for sale. He said the drake has been inside all his life so far since the seller had no space for him. The drake looked rugged and i feel bad for animals who live in a cage all their life so guilt took over and i bought the little guy. I always said i...

    Hey all was gone for a bit! Alright so my sister and i did research on why my gosling had a ball of pure air growing around it's leg area like a balloon. The cause of it is usually when a bird has injures itself somehow such as falling off a high place as a baby or gets a hard bang somehow...

    Question I've had this problem in the past and it never turned out well. My buff gosling is developing a balloon shape thing around the leg and belly area. I know what will happen as it's gonna get bigger and bigger. My sister is a vet and she will get the air out around the effected area...
