I want to share some pics of my goslings enjoying the sun, and I'd love to see other people's goslings so please do share! I think mine are African and Chinese geese.(it was hactery choice) also, if they are all african/chinese I'd be very interested in trading them for hatching eggs of other...
After almost a year of deciding whether or not I wanted to get geese, I ordered them in February. They just arrived today and I'm in love! Much sweeter and bolder than my ducklings were when I got them. These guys love to sit in my hand, eat grass out of it, and run over to me when I get near...
Hi, looking for a few Pilgrim goslings. Newly hatched or anticipated hatching soon. Male and a few females. Will be well cared for pets with some ducks and chickens. Western MA area. Thanks!! 😊
I just wanted to know out of Sebastopol geese, Pilgrim or Embden. I want a breed that are really friendly (and i know you have to handle them a lot as goslings to achieve that). I’d also like a breed that are really loyal and attached to me. Any suggestions?
So I am totally new to geese, but not new to poultry... have had ducks, chickens, and turkeys in the past. Came back in strong with 24 ducks, 6 bantam chickens, and 10 Embden x Toulouse goslings... now these 10 goslings are mixed and I have no idea what they might turn into , and I was hoping...
We just want a male female pair of goslings to hand raise and add to our small flock of hens. Any suggestions for where to purchase them in or near middle Tennessee?
Online I have only seen the option to buy large quantities.
Thank you!
The experience and knowledge shared in this Place is invaluable. Though I have not been a member, I have read very useful information from this place for a long time. I keep Turkeys and Guinea Fowls, I only recently started keeping Geese. Once my Geese had started laying I gave the eggs To my...
Last summer I lost my two sweet chinese geese when a fox attacked my flock. It’s taken me awhile to feel ready to get more geese, but I finally am !!
I live in Connecticut and I’d be happy with any breed. I’m only looking for up to 2 babies.
Hey all! Hope you're ready for the holidays because here they come!! :th
And then it's that special time of year where our feather babies turn crazy and make babies of their own!
So, today's question is...
If Chance the gander and BB goose hatch babies, will they be auto sexing?
Chance (M)=...
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.
Hey everyone!
I am currently raising 2 hens, 1 rooster, 4 ducks, 8 three week old chicks, 2 one week old goslings, 2 one week old ducklings, and 4 one week old chicks.
I've wanted to raise chickens for years and my boyfriend's coworker sold some older chickens and ducks to us a few months ago...
I have 2 goslings, 2 ducklings, and 4 chicks in a 6ft brooder. They were all a day old when I received them and they are a week old today. There is so much mixed information out there that I was hoping for some advice. At this point, the birds are very attached to each other. I'm pretty sure one...
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Been raising geese, ducks and chickens now for close to 10 years. Every year I learn much more than I knew the year before.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
Have well over 40 chickens, 11 geese, and 14 ducks. Try to...
I have a super crazy gander that adopted a 4 week old duckling and gosling (against my will) and he is insanely protective and rude now :barnie He’s usually such a sweetheart, so you can imagine why I’m so irritated with him biting me and hissing 24/7. How long do geese raise their babies for...
This African gosling is approximately 5 weeks old.
Most of its diet through the past 4 weeks consists of Mazuri Waterfowl Starter and romaine lettuce but also had a little Purina Flock Raiser Crumbles (non-medicated) and cabbage. It seemed to eat a little of grass in my parent's backyard last...

A Canada goose mom has hatched eggs on the roof of my school. There are 4 fuzzy goslings up there beeping around. They have water (some puddles) but no clear way down and no food. Mom's still around, I think. What would you do? Can goslings jump from a 2nd story roof onto sidewalk?
Hello all,
We have 18 day old ducklings (2) and goslings (4). By the time my husband noticed the girl duck wasn’t breathing and she was already gone, and while trying to stimulate her to see if he could possibly save her the boy duck started having labored breathing too. Within 30 minutes both...
