I just checked craigslist for Montgomery. There are a couple of ads there. Also do a google search for geese for sale in your area. You'd be surprised how much you can find if you are willing to drive up to a few hours.

That's a wonderful picture. They both look really happy. RIP Henry. How's Scarface??

I'm sorry Scarface is so depressed, but glad he appears to be recovering. Hope you can get him either an adult female or a couple of goslings soon! Snow is 100% healthy and so far has not attempted to lay another egg. I am pretty sure she will be cleared by my vet to return to her group on...

Harry, hope you and Scarface are doing ok today. I will be out of pocket most of the day, but will check for updates when I can. FYI, my white goose (her name is Snow, by the way) is still doing well and so far no sign of another egg.

For what it is worth, I believe Henry had an amazing life (better than most geese) and in the end, he went peacefully on the water with his companion by his side. That's all any animal, especially a goose, could hope for. I have much respect for the care you provided him for many years.

I am so sorry for your loss!! Henry was obviously very ill. You did absolutely nothing wrong by giving him the shot. As hard as it may be, you should still catch Scarface and examine the lesions carefully. Once you can get that addressed, the best thing for Scarface is to find him a new...

Thanks! She's lost the swollen tucked up look and is definitely feeling all better now. She is quite irritated to be locked away in the house and lets me know every time I check in on her. So far no sign of going into egg laying mode. Here she is today: Harry, sorry to partially hijack...

FYI, your ganders' poop should be green, since they eat a lot of grass/greens. Most shades of green are normal. It is a bright pistachio lime shade that may indicate a problem.

Great job, Harry!! If bacterial, I would expect Henry to respond fast to penicillin. Good luck with Scarface and don't forget to take a lot of pics in the process. FYI.... my white goose is recovering. She finally was able to get membrane out of her vent overnight and is much perkier this...

No, thank goodness. I had that happen to a goose last year and she passed within 12 hours of first appearance of anything being "off". This is the opposite. She had a shell-less egg break inside of her. She has been pooping yolk/egg whites for almost 36 hours and appears to be fighting...

Thanks. I hope so, too!

Not that I am aware of. My white African goose is looking a touch worse this afternoon, despite continuing to poop out the egg that busted inside of her. Chances are good I'll be taking my goose to my vet's house this evening. If I can remember, I will ask if he knows any online sources.

Darn Alabama boondocks. I never thought Utah of all places would be on the cutting edge in waterfowl veterinary medicine! Look forward to the report once you have gotten your supplies, birds caught, weighed, examined and pictures taken. Good luck!!!

Harry, I just called the emergency hospital at Auburn University and explained your situation. He said he will make some calls and try to find you a vet in your area to see your ganders.

oops neopolybac It is an ophthalmic ointment containing neomycin sulfate, polymyxin b sulfate and bacitracin zinc.

I am blown away by the response you have gotten from vets. There are three clinics in Salt Lake City that specifically see waterfowl, plus at least one farm vet I know that will also see geese. Yes, my vet did say it could be fatty or cancerous tumor, but he has not seen the pictures. He...

EXCELLENT advice!

Scrub face with betadine, then apply Neopolybag.

No.... worse. It is my favorite gander's mate. The one that I could not separate to put into the breeding pen. She has had her last two eggs break inside of her. She rebounded quickly from it a few days ago and is attempting to pull through again today.

Thanks. Unfortunately, bad things still happen to my animals despite my best efforts and access to vets. In fact, I have a sick white African goose right now suffering from reproductive issues and there's not much my vet can do at the moment to help her.
