    Stumbling Goose

    2 year old roman tufted gander. Had been fine up until a few weeks ago. Started crouching as close to the ground as possible without sitting down and stomping his feet as fast as possible, not running, just stomping. Then would wander off like that. Has started standing up like a runner duck...

    Broody Goose safety suggestions?

    I have three Toulouse, two geese and one gander. My sweet goose, Pumpkin, made a beautiful nest under our deck this past week. She kind of made it and then ignored it until the past couple days. We went out this evening to put her to bed (which is a fenced area, with a covered wagon. Our ducks...

    Sebustol goose fertility

    I am looking at buying a mated pair of sebustol geese for $200. She says she's had them since 2021, and this is their first breeding season with her. Her other pairs are giving fertile eggs, but these are not she mentioned that the males could have had a prolapsed appendage and could maybe not...

    Rough geese

    I have two female French Toulouse geese. They are almost a year old and have been laying eggs for about a 6 weeks now. They are always trying to mate with each other. One is ripping all the feathers off of the other's head and her head is in rough shape. But they also seem to be trying to mate...

    Geese hate their house!

    Hello! Meet Gus & Gil our almost one year old pilgrim ganders. My boyfriend built them a wonderful house that they absolutely hate. He even insulated it so they would be nice and warm in the winter. They spend their days free ranging on our land and they are the funniest to watch. We have an...

    War or peace between new chickens...?

    I have 15-18 chickens in a coop. Eight are mature hens, three are mature roosters & the other seven are chicks (sex tbd). These are all bantam sized chickens. We are looking in to building an actual poultry barn soon that would be able to house LOADS of all sorts of birds! I would love to throw...

    Someone posted these poor guys on Reddit yesterday. She said they are all living on a local pond in Odell, Oregon. She has room to try and take in one or two of them and is going to try and get the Welsh Harlequin tomorrow, as it seems to be injured. She’s contacted local rescues and animal...

    Tula / Steinbacher (Fighting) Goose Crosses

    Anyone out there know of any Tula or Steinbacher crosses? I'm pretty sure I've seen a Tula-cross somewhere online although no clue as to the actual lineage or accuracy of what I saw. May have been a Tula-African. I would think Steinbacher crosses would be a bit more common, but I've only found a...

    Avian flu in Geese

    Hi all, so I took my little Joey (Embden x something goose) to the vet who suggested avian flu or something viral might be what's wrong with him. Does anyone have any experience with avian flu in geese? My goose has some symptoms, but not symptoms that I would think are common. He hasn't been...

    Are Geese Underrated?

    I have a question... Beyond a few books out there it sure seems Geese finish last in the fowl popularity contest. Like a foot note in the Duck section which turns about to be a chapter in the Chicken book calling it self "something or other on fowl". Is this fair or am I missing something...

    how to tell the age of my Embden goose?

    I have an Embden goose, Snowflake, that was introduced into our flock along with two saddlebacks in late September. She's much less skiddish than all of our other geese, who we all either hatched or got as babies. she's always had a bit of a limp, but with the snow settling in, it's gotten more...

    Septic water safe to drink?? Ducks/chickens/geese

    Soo.. our septic tank is acting up and is leaking water from the access point. I don't know if the water is cleaned or not before it gets to the access point 😐...

    What Goose Breed is Right For Me?

    Hi! I’ve owned geese before (two White Chinese geese). One male and one female, the male was quite aggressive so I’m looking to only get female geese. I’d like them to be good “guard dogs” as I have had a hawk who killed one of our chickens and I don’t want it happening again. Also, I had four...

    Greetings from Oregon

    Hello, I guess introductions are in order first. I didn't set out to become a flock mother. It was thrust upon me by my own live-in parent. But seeing as I do the bulk of the bird care, it seems I need to seek out the advice of other parents of feathered creatures who are much more experienced...
