911 goslings delayed in shipment- very weak

[Miss Lydia]

When giving liquids make sure it is right in front inside the bill, let them swallow then do it again. You don't want them to aspirate water. Give them warm water also. Very sorry for your loss, hope the goslings pull through, sounds like they have a good chance.

HELP, our ducklings and gosling shipped out Monday and only arrived at post office today Friday . The ducklings were dead but goslings are stil alive. I’ve been putting droplets of water with electrolytes probiotics and a spoon of sugar on their beaks. What else can I do? They’re under the heating plate but one is barely hanging on, almost refusing the water (beak tightly clamped) and it’s beak is purple ish. How frequently should I be giving them water?
Thanks so much

thats heartbreaking. I am sorry for your loss. I hope your goslings pulled through
