goose

My geese hatched their own goslings, so they simply walk around with them, this morning all of them were fine and excited to get out of the pen and eat, as always. Much later in the day I noticed one was acting lethargic while swimming with the others, just floating around and looking tired. A...

Hi everyone. I’m located near Buffalo NY and am looking for Toulouse Dewlap Goslings or fertile eggs. Please reach out to me if you have anything available. I’m willing to pay to ship either goslings or eggs, or travel. Thank you! Christina

We took in a baby gosling right around the time I hatched 5 eggs in the incubator. The gosling and chicks have adapted to each other well! My question is: when I move them to the big coop/run this week, what is the best bedding and sleep method for the gosling. It’s getting big and the chicks...

I find myself raising 13 ducklings and a gosling, and pretty soon need to decide who to keep. We’re pretty set on keeping the gosling because it’s so, so sweet and then would like to keep all one gender of some of the ducklings. Five are drakes, and I am considering keeping them as a bachelor...

I believe I'm on day 29 of incubation with a buff/pilgrim goose egg. Temperature is at 99 and humidity is 70 percent. I had one hatch this morning and the other hatch day before yesterday. There's two eggs left in the incubator. One I didn't have good hopes for in the first place because the air...

Not positive for sure when little guy started to externally pip as he started on the side facing the bottom of the incubator floor. Last nite around 9pm I realized he had pipped thru & little beak was “stuck out” or unable to get back into continue to work on the unzipping of the shell. I grew...

I wanted to introduce myself and seek public input. I'm a molecular biologist and completely unfamiliar with reptilian biology. I have a sizeable pond and with stable food supply, many ducks and geese (primarily Chinese and migratory Canadian) have made it their home. We have built a "duck...

My gosling started to flip over puke up water nd seizure yesterday and is now completely better. The new one is a muscovy and he started to flip over and puke up a whole crop of water a few minutes ago, he is also getting better. What is this? Did they drink too much? I've had this happen before...

Right so goose puberty! Tell me your experience and please tell me it doesn’t last long lol, my little 3 month old darling has turned into a psycho lately, he/she is still very sweet but all of a sudden everything is scary he can’t control his/her voice sometimes I think only dogs can hear it...

Hey guys I ordered 6 pilgrim eggs on eBay and received 7, two arrived cracked so 5 went into the incubator. Just candled them (day 8) and two where obviously not developing. Two look normal but one looks a little weird so I wanted to see what you guys think. It’s my first time incubating goose...

Here's a photo of Lucy, my guard goose, and Grey, one of my chickens. These two have a lot of history so I find it hilarious I managed to get a picture of them together. They're drinking out of the pond in my backyard. Lucy is my one and only goose, who was born on March 23rd 2018. She was...

Lately my 4 American buff geese have been wandering quite far from home, we had no problems last year with them free ranging, they stayed by the pond and hung out peacefully with my ducks. I have recently learned I have 3 males, could that be the problem?

My three geese are all sitting on a nest of about 14. They have been sitting a long time. I didn’t write down the exact date they started sitting, but it feels like too long. So today, I went and took one egg to candle it. It’s hard to see very much detail bc the shell is so thick, but it looked...

**warning, description of chicken death** Hello all, I live in a small city on about .3 of an acre. I started with a flock of 6 (city limit) and due to two turning out to be roosters (not allowed) and one bantam being caught by the neighborhood hawk, I was down to 3. I keep them in a coop with...

My 9 month old gander began limping on March 2, I didn’t think much of it because he got into a squabble with one of the other boys and I figured he just needed resting. His limp progressed, his left hock was slightly inflamed after a few days and I noticed he was losing weight so I thought he...

My problem is about to identify the specie of geese I have. I ll attach photos and videos (maybe, edit: I can't). It is a male female couple. She laid 11 eggs, first ones. I am afraid that she won't broode? She lives alone with her partner. They all have very big separate space. I am looking for...

Hello people, I am a young guy from Serbia. 1. I grew on a farm, so I am not new to chickens, but neither to other animals. 2. Heh, interesting question. About 40 adults, three males among them. And 24 young ones. 3. Chickens, sheep maybe will have, 2 geese male and female and 3 young pigs...

It is with some sadness that I need to re-home my pair of geese ): I may be moving under some unfortunate circumstances and I do not know if my new home will accommodate them, as this whole living situation is in limbo. Need to make myself lighter of belongings... Some animals too! The pair is...
