I have reason to beleive it may be Aspergillosis, as one morning there was mold growth near their food dish, and the symptoms match up. The older gosling died, I'm upset, a younger one is now showing symptoms and I've removed them from the pen. I'm having a hard time finding out how to treat...

My geese hatched their own goslings, so they simply walk around with them, this morning all of them were fine and excited to get out of the pen and eat, as always. Much later in the day I noticed one was acting lethargic while swimming with the others, just floating around and looking tired. A...

Hmm, alright, i have some rooster booster vitamin stuff that has iron in it, so I'll try that and oystershell and try to get to the store for some of those foods. I try to keep them from doing it, I don't think any of the stuff has chipping, so there's not much of anything they can get off of...

I tried searching Google and here for "goose rust" and "geese rust" as either with "eating" didnt pull up anything. My geese, particularily the females, keep going to rusty things- metal shelving, the bumpers of old trucks, ect, and eating rust(or trying to anyways) and im not sure why. Anyone...

Mine are white chinese and brown african,yes two males can get along, it just depends on their individual personality, whether or not they were raised together and how many, if any, females are present. yes they eat weeds, so far they seem good at it but I've only had them for half a year...

I'm not sure where else to post, if it's not ok to ask I'm sorry and I'll delete immediately.. but I have 4 male geese that need homes, I would like money for them as I've spent a lot on feed and caring for them, but I really have to find them other homes because I have too many males and...

Yeah it's not their beaks they're rubbing, just their neck/head area, almost like the bathing motion, but not quite

The one with white around its beak

I'm still uncertain which are male or female, I thought maybe the ones manny(the oldest one that has been singling some out) was being aggressive to were the males, but one that I was sure was male because they were aggressive and loud, manny doesnt bother, and one that is very quiet that I...

I dont know if I'm allowed to try selling geese here, so I wont, but I would like opinions on how much I should sell an adult male goose for. I have to sell a few because my oldest male goose is being mean to some of them, and I'm thinking it's because they must be males as well. Either way, hes...

I noticed an odd thing today that I've not seen my geese do before, I let them out to eat grass and a couple of them kept doing a motion to rub their head/neck on the grass in between eating pieces, the only way i can think to describe it is as if they were 'marking', like how a cat rubs its...

it looks like I might have 5 male ducks out of 8 :( I really dont want to get rid of so many of them but that would mean keeping them separated which means I couldnt let them out to forage. I'm guessing based on tail curls and voices, I may even have 6 because only two are noticeably loud. the...

I think that's what it was called, yes. but I dont think the geese have it. I've looked around more online and geese snoring seems kinda common? so I guess maybe that's it, as theres really no other indication it's anything else. the muscovys that had the fungal infection would wheeze all the...

yes, two of them do it

maybe, I'm not sure if they look at geese though, I'll have to check. any idea what could be the cause of the noise? they arent sneezing, or thin/lethargic or anything, its only when they lay down

heres a link to what sound it's making, it sounds like a 'snore' when it breathes out, but only when its laying down, and it's not constant. I think theres at least two of them doing it(not in the vid but in general) maybe it's possible all of them do it and I dont notice because when I'm out...

heres their bigger setup, it's not very pretty but it works well. they're growing fast though. thankfully making progress on the new pen for all of them, their pond is mostly dug and I'll be trying to set up some fencing tomorrow.

I'm sorry I can't get a good pic since its night now, he had the 'cut' this morning but it didnt look bad and wasnt bleeding until just now(one of the others stepped on him and opened the wound when I was moving them back to their cage) it appears to be from possibly wedging his beak in the...

update on them, they're almost fully feathered except for their wings. the one that was possibly a black swedish is definitely not(top duck), I'm guessing they're a mallard or rouen mix since they still have the small white bib but all their black turned mallard pattern. the other one kept their...

yes I moved them into a much larger cage a few days ago, I havnt measured it, but I think it's at least 6 by 6 feet, I think they're happy with the larger space. I just wish I could put the 5 ducklings in with them, but several of the goslings are.. quite mean and try to fight with them.
