After three years one of my geese finally managed to hatch out a clutch. Toulouse female and male, she had 8 eggs, 7 hatched, 6 made it out all the way and are surviving. I noticed that two of the surviving and the one that didn’t make it have pink feet and beak and the grey feathers are...
Hey all! I got my “Toulouse” goose April 2nd of this year. He (don’t actually know if he’s a he😅) is clearly not a full Toulouse, I have never had another breed. I am thinking he is an African goose or maybe African/Toulouse mix. He does have a little orange coming through on his bill, but I’m...
I’m curious how accurate people have found Metzers sexed goslings. I order 2 females (Buff and a a Toulouse) and one is literally 3 times the size of the other one (Buff is the larger gosling) - I have weighed them a few times. The Toulouse is doing well and steadily growing but from my...
So Cricket (the toulouse) and Jellybean (roman tufted) are a out 2 months old. Cricket is making more of a honking noise now. Can they be sexed by what noise they make? I'm super duper new to geese.
I'm currently on day 29 of incubating Emden x Toulouse eggs and I had 3/4 with movement on day 26-27 but after raising the humidity it went to 83% for 24 hours (my target was 70%). Now I don't see any movement. They should be hatching by now right? Did I drown them?

I have a gosling that I initially thought was a buff, but I noticed he has blue eyes.
My two girls that are the possible moms are a Classic Roman and an American Buff. More than likely the Roman is the mom.
The possible dad’s are Leo and Parsnip, French Toulouse, and French Toulouse?
Leo is...
I am a small hobby farmer with a mixed flock of chickens, ducks, and geese.
I’m fairly new to raising poultry (5yrs in) and am looking forward to learning more and sharing stories through this community.
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...
I have a pair of Toulouse geese and they hatched two eggs! They are super cute! Both parents are super protective. I have them in their own enclosure away from the chickens. And they are not allowed outside for now.
but do I leave the goslings with them or should I take them and raise them...
Hi friends. So I have a big problem. I have a buff Toulouse gosling who is about a week old. Earlier today he was just fine. He was with the other babies and they were all doing great. However, I went to check on them and I found him on its back. I picked him up and he flipped back onto his...
Hi,
I have 4, 2 week old Goslings that I need help identifying. 3 who I assume are Toulouse however I thought they had black Bill's as babies, mine seem to have pinkish gray bills and feet. The other has a pink bill and feet. These are the possible crosses since I bought the eggs and hatched...
I currently have a bonded pair of Toulouse (5 years old/free roam not handled) for $80. I have 4 available Toulouse goslings (less than a week old/ handled a lot) 18/each not sexed Will NOT ship. Must pick up near Somerset/ Johnstown, PA...
Hi, I am new to raising poultry and have been raising chickens (4+ 1 rooster) since July now. I am now eagerly awaiting a larger addition of Chicks, ducklings and Emden goslings to our flock. The question is about the geese. I just read that Embden geese were not for beginners, esp. The males...
Recently while I was away on a trip one of my two geese was stolen (probably by a fox). I am now looking for a mate.
Does anyone have, or know someone who has a Toulouse Gander that they do not want/need?
