    Sebastopol Geese Thread !!!!!!!!!! SHOW YOUR PICS !!!!!!!!!!

    I understand. We have to be able to control them. I once had a silkie roo mailed to me and he got lost in transit for a week. He never got over it. He was mean. He would always try to jump up and spur me but of course with all that fluff there isn't really much he could do. I would just catch...

    I try not to hit any of my birds. When I got my geese they where grown and not friendly at all. I had to figure out how to feed and water without getting attacked. I found just walking in their enclosure with a shovel did the trick. They would back up until the female started laying. He would...

    I toss in a head of lettace. They forget I"m even there. Now when I open the door they are standing there looking at my hands waiting to see where I toss it. Before the gander would try to attack me everytime I touched the water dish or fill their food bowl. Now he leaves me alone.

    Glad they survived while you where gone. Your lucky to have nice geese. When I go out to water and feed mine I have to carry a stick or shovel just to fend them off. It's not easy to hold a stick while holding back the gander with one hand and break ice and clean out the mud then refill with...

    I always wonder how people around the world take care of their poultry in difficult weather conditions be it hot or cold. I think it's very interesting the different ways people do things to accommodate for their weather. I've sent eggs to Alaska and I wonder how they keep their poultry in...

    I had to thaw out dishes today twice so just before they went to bed I went out and broke the ice enough for them to get a drink before bed. Then I went back out and collected all the water dishes and thawed them out. In the morning I'll take them all back out and give them enough to last a few...

    I was thinking of putting a pie pan under it by attaching it with some wire but didn't know if they would get as much of the heat. I do have some chicken wire attached so if the bulb just comes out like some do it wouldn't fall on the silkies and the wood shavings and injure any of my babies or...

    I'm worried about all my poultry. The only pen I'm able to get heat to is my juvenile pen. I don't normally use the 250 watt bulbs but I have to for the next few days and I worry about using them around bedding. I have it very secure and It won't fall in the wood shavings but I worry about a...

    I was just given 2 geese from a lady because her neighbors where complaining about them. One is a Sepastopol and the other is a Pilgrim. I was hoping I could find out the sex of them from this thread but there are way too many pages to read thru. What I have read I would need another of each to...
