    What does a goose vibrating it's head mean

    This gesture has been made at me, at food, and at another goose eating food shortly before the vibrating goose stole the food. I wonder what this means... food? competition? dominance? possessiveness?

    cheap replacements for medicated goose injury spray?

    my deal is that, they are not my birds, but wild geese, and I have seen a few injured now. So aside from wildlife rescue, if I see one injured, I want to have something I can use immediately, in my car. Naturally, since there are about 100 geese, and I am not a rich person, I want to cut costs...

    gosling neck problem question

    er I would only do this for the goslings, as I saw someone on here post that a diet of oats gave one of their goslings angel wing... these would get grass and oats of course but still. It was really just an experiment to see where to buy it and how to do it

I used 1 drop and rolled oats around in it so it got swabbed across a whole handful. 1 drop seems to be the dosage for a 3 pound gosling from the bottle. it strongly disliked the taste and tried to clean it's mouth. What would be the way to do this for a...

    have you ever seen a bumblefoot goose walking with his wrist

    I am trying to see if this young adult gosling goose has bumblefoot. I can't get close enough but thought I saw a bumblefoot blister. Maybe. He/she is using one leg, as if I bent my hand down 90 degrees and then tried to walk on my wrist - he is walking on his joint, with his foot bent under...

    Canada geese with goslings have another pair following them! Help!

    did the goslings just hatch? probably not... they steal children from each other, and sometimes the parents that are robbed contest it by sticking around. The chicks could be from both sets of parents
