5 hour drive😅

I just finished a 5 hour drive to pick up a female Sebastopol gosling… now 5 hours till home. I’m very available for distraction's and thought I’d share some pictures of the drive through Colorado! Here’s my new little girl!

She's cute! But do you have other goslings?

Yep! I have a little gander waiting for her at home!

Is she the goose that lays the golden eggs?
If not to you because I could never do a 10 hour round trip for a bird.

Thanks! Golden eggs would definitely be nice but I’m just hoping she’ll keep my gander happy and of the ducks! I could NOT find any goslings anywhere near my area so when I saw these I jumped on it! Monument to Grand Junction… but I got her!

Got some pictures. It’s getting close to sundown and the drive is pretty harry so we are stopping at a hotel so we don’t have to drive in the dark. But now I have smuggle a gosling into a hotel… I did buy her a heating pad and some food though so she’ll be good. Oh yeah I need some clothes…

Yay, Colorado! Where did you start from and where did you pick up your gosling?
I'm a member of the 10-hour club! Only in my case I drove 10 hours EACH WAY to pick up some beautiful lavender Easter Eggers! Yes, EEs! I'm in SE Missouri and my GC and I drove to NW Alabama to pick up a dozen gorgeous lavender chicks. But the breeder, a real sweetie, insisted on giving us four extra "just in case." They all survived but a neighbor's dog got one . ... and NINE proved to be cockerels, lol! So I now have six beautiful hens, just now a year old. Two of them just hatched a chick each. And yes, it was worth it! So enjoy your baby goose, and may she and your gander bless you with many a flock of little goslings!

I started in Monument and drove to Grand Junction. 20+ hours round trip!?! That’s crazy! And 9 roosters! Wow! I’m glad it was worth it! And congrats on your new chicks! And thank you!
