    Online Veterinarian advice

    Has anyone ever used an online poultry veterinarian for their geese or ducks? How was your experience with them, cost, and were you able to get a prescription from them for an antibiotic? I have a goose with a few bumblefoot lumps because he is a dunderhead and was trying to fight with some...

    Michigan - Searching for Toulouse Hatching Eggs

    I’m looking for Toulouse hatching eggs anywhere in Michigan that I can pick up. The weather right now can’t make up its mind and I feel like it would be too cold to ship at since night time temperatures are still in the 20s in northern Michigan.

    Any Adoptable Geese?

    Hello! I have 1 male French Toulouse goose named Jacque Goosteau. He's about 2 years old and I adopted him from someone who had two other Chinese geese selling as a pair for breeding. ( Didn't work out with the couple so they did something else with the geese ) I'm not sure if I'm looking to...

    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...

    Hey all 👋 I am currently incubating some goose eggs. I am on day 21 and for the past day or so one of the eggs has been wriggling a lot like every 5 minutes some times every 10 seconds or so and eventually takes a break. Is this normal?

    A way to induce vomiting in geese

    Just a tip for goose owners out there. FORCING A BIRD TO REGURGITATE IS RISKY AS IT CAN CAUSE THEM TO ASPIRATE! But If you can’t get them to a vet and if you need to do it in an emergency..... Method 1. Pick the goose up, hold them as far upside down as you can with one arm. Use your free...

    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...

    Did I misgender my African grey goose?

    My husband and I got sexed goslings from metzer farms last spring; we named the female African grey “Odette,” the male African grey “Goostav,” & the female white Chinese “Lucy Goosey.” Unfortunately we lost Lucy Goosey and (who we thought was) Goostav to a predator when the 3 were...

    How much should a 4 month old embden/czech goose weigh?

    Approximately, how much should the average domestic embden x czech goose weigh? How tall should it be? I think it's a female, but not sure.

    Very dizzy goose, maybe riemerella anatipestifer?

    Hi all, We rescued a goose about four months ago. In about mid January we suspect that he had an impacted crop, he was dizzy, falling over, had somewhat of an appetite (but couldn't stretch down to eat), and he couldn't put his head under his wing. At the time, I massaged his crop and helped...

    Hi everyone, it’s been a while. We picked up some geese 7 months ago when they were just little hatchlings. First time goose owner, hand raised and very very loved. Hormone seasons kicking up so obviously they’re going to act different, but I noticed our Sebastopol in particular is really...

    Ganders fighting!!!

    Hello, I've been having some problems with two of my Ganders. Their names are Gus and Puddles. Just yesterday they started fighting resulting in Gus getting a cut under his eye.

    So Gus the gosling is 5 weeks old today, his grown so much it’s crazy to think he could fit in the palm of my hand only 5 weeks ago!
