    Breed, please?

    Austra White seems to be it. I have a hen of the same coloring. I’ve never had this type before. Thanks, everyone!

    Breed, please?

    F04B9D60-E7FC-4BA8-A398-C45653D538DC by mangled posted Mar 13, 2018 at 1:47 PMI had 9 birds brought to me in a rescue type situation and I was wondering if this fellow is a certain breed or a barnyard mix. He’s got white earlobes, he’s really a super nice roo. His legs are gray. His neck...

    F04B9D60-E7FC-4BA8-A398-C45653D538DC

    Hoping to find out what breed this fella is. White earlobes, gray legs. I took him as a rescue. He’s a bit dirty from a hoarding type situation, but a super nice guy.

    Dirty Eggs

    Hello, all- While spreading straw today, I discovered where my goose has been laying her eggs. There's 9. I'm sure they're fertile, and I was hoping to incubate, but they're just filthy. We are just all mud right now, its just ridiculous. She must've mudded them up walking in and out of the...

    Pygmy Kid Diarrhea

    We took in a pygmy doe 8 weeks ago on a rescue type basis, and after determining her healthy, released her with our other two does. Imagine my surprise to go out to the barn and find her with 2 adorable kids yesterday morning. The kids seem healthy, they're up and moving around, eating...

    Broodiness Epidemic!!

    I'm literally at a loss for what to do. I've got 2 broody geese, a broody duck and six broody hens. Gathering eggs is near impossible, especially when my geese are stealing and sitting on chicken eggs. You try to do it without getting bit, and it's impossible. Those girls bite, and hard...

    Need some goat advice ...

    Thanks for the replies. He's penned up in our small isolation pen, and is quite unhappy about it. He's taken to butting Ginger through the fence. He can't get her, but he sure tries. We're going out and getting the equipment for a small electrified pasture tonight. We figure if we triple...

    Need some goat advice ...

    He does have horns. That's what concerns me. Poor Ginger was just helpless against him. He's penned up indefinitely now. He isn't happy about it, but the girls do visit him through the fence... We don't wish to breed now. He was definitely interested but got no where fast with either one...

    Need some goat advice ...

    We've had our Nigerian dwarf and Pygmy females for 2 years. They're 4 years old and have always been together. They free range over 13 acres and are generally sweethearts. Recently, we've been working towards becoming more self sufficient and decided we want to try milking the goats. We...

    African Geese Eggs

    I'm on day 30, and I've got absolutely no movement, rocking, peeping, nothing. This is my first time with goose eggs and I'm *really* beginning to worry. I know if I open my Brower to candle, my humidity will drop like a rock, so I really don't want to candle. When exactly should I worry...

    Super Africans - 10 eggs set 3/19

    I'm so excited. It's my first time with goose eggs, so I'm nervous, too. I've got 10 in my Brower Top Hatch, and aside from a massive humidity spike, it's all looking good. I have done a ton of reading on incubating geese, and it seems that there's a lot of different methods, so I'm...

    Angel wing and breeding

    Recently, I've adopted 6 African geese. One of the males has serious angel wing and one of the females just on the one side and not as bad. They've all just begun laying and I've been collecting the eggs and plan to incubate them. It just occurred to me this morning that there are eggs...

    African Goose Questions ...

    Well, I ran into the lady I got them from and asked her again about the age of her other pair. She said she got them the year her last child graduated and that was 1988. So, 23 years old. Crazy. The pair I have are 8 years old. The different sites on the web that I have found either don't...

    African Goose Questions ...

    I wondered. Now I'm excited for Spring. Any idea on their lifespan? The lady I got them from says her pair is 23, and their lifespan is supposed to be 10-15 years. Thanks- Em

    African Goose Questions ...

    Hello all - Through the summer, I started talking to an older woman at my church who has rasied Africans for 25+ years. A pair she claims to have had 23 years hatched out a brood of 5 this summer and she wanted to rehome her other pair of geese, as she's in need of space. I gladly accepted...

    Guppy tanks

    We have a 50 gallon bow front aquarium that is FULL of guppies. Like the poster above, I'm always giving them away. We just have a filter and a light, no heater or anything. The babies do like to hide down in the rocks and plants, so make sure you get them lots of plants. I actually have...
