    They all are part Canadian goose, I had to find a new home for them as I need to relocate sadly. Their new home is on a farm with ample grazing and a good owner.

    They get tons of greens they are next to my herb and vegetable garden, they help themselves to whatever they can reach (I checked that what they are eating is ok). We give them oat grass that we pick from the field every morning. Its adorable to see them sitting in a neat row by the fence every...

    I have Silkies and Australirps, they are with the Silkies at the moment my black hen sort of adopted them. The one that had heatstroke often wonders off from the rest I think he ventured out in the sun when the rest were in the shade. We covered the entire enclosure with shade netting so I wont...
