    Advice needed on gosling with yolk sack.

    I recently hatched out two Sebastopol goslings one completely healthy normal boy and another girl who had some difficulties. She hatched very enthusiastically completely on her own but for some reason hatched with the yolk attached, after some reading I think it may have been due to humidity...

    How do I care for my goose and her hatchlings?

    My goose is sat on a mixed pile of duck eggs and her own eggs, due to hatch this week. She’s a first time mum, and this is my first time with a sitting goose too. She has been very conscientious in sitting — has hardly left her nest— so her house is a bit dirty as I haven’t been able to get in...

    Introducing goslings to single goose

    Should i have anything to worry about when introducing goslings to a single african goose? I've read that usually ganders are what to worry about. Also I was thinking that since she is the only goose(4 ducks, 1 goose) that she might readily adopt the babies, but just want to make sure.
