    runt gosling can't keep up with the others, developmental delay

    She turned 6 weeks yesterday. Little Midge started showing signs of delay in development some days back, falling behind her fellow goslings. She soon became unstable on her feet. This led to full blown instability and near complete loss of balance. Sometimes even ending stuck on her back. We...

    Sebastopol Gosling Color

    Hello everyone, My husband recently asked if we could expand our flock of geese to include some Pomeranian and Sebastopol goslings. Of course, I had no problem accepting his request. I went on a 10 hour round-trip journey yesterday to acquire both breeds of goslings from two separate breeders...

    Any guess on gosling's breed?

    Hello everyone, I recently went on a journey to pick up some Pomeranian goslings. I did get three of them, but I also came home with two mystery goslings as well. The woman I bought them from raises Pomeranian, Sebastopol, Tufted Roman, and Toulouse geese. She said she keeps her goslings...

    Any idea of the sex of these two African (I think) goslings?

    Can anyone tell me if these African goslings are male or female?I know it’s a long shot but thought I’d ask. They are around 3/4 weeks old. One has a much more pronounced “knob” than the other.

    American Buff Goose for Sale near Richmond, VA

    Beautiful and one of the most calm and friendly breed of geese. Ages range from 8 weeks to newly hatched. While geese do not lay as many eggs as layer and dual purpose chickens, they are more hardy, more predator resistant and forage a lot on grass saving substantially on feed bill. These...

    Another important feed question for goslings

    Hey! I’m just wondering what to do really as I have another 2-5 days until my actual waterfowl starter feed arrives (no place in my area sells it! The shops are useless here and this was the fastest delivery I could get) I know people say to mix brewers yeast in with chick crumb but they just...

    Started feed suggestions!

    So our 2 baby goslings at the moment aren’t at all interested in chick feed which was originally suggested to us, but after doing more research it looks like people are against using chick feed because it’s not enough for them (don’t worry it’s not medicated so nothing dangerous in it) I’m just...

    Skin balloon, tag, growth

    I just noticed this on my 2 week old gander gosling. The hatchery said that it's just a growth. It's crusty at the base, they said to use antibiotic cream if needed. It's on his belly. We are taking him to the vet if and when he needs it removed.

    Gosling with eye issues

    Hello all - I am seeking some advice or thoughts on my one gosling who has a bulgy eye (photos attached). The one with the drawn white circles is likely 12 or so hours after she first hatched. I noticed it in a video I took of the goslings after the woman I sold her to complained of her having...

    What kind of pool

    Hello, all! I'm quite new to raising geese, but this year we have a pair of Embden goslings! Ruby and Jasper are feathering in nicely on their wings and bum, and soon they will be ready for life outdoors! They will co-habitate with my flock of chickens. This brings me to my question. What kind...

    Should I pull the egg???

    One Sebastopol gosling egg is VERY narrow. Its pointy end is pointy. Considering that the female is barely a year old, should I remove that egg??? I've never had to cull a chick and am concerned that the gosling that grows in the narrow shell might not develop properly. Does anyone have any...
