Chinese geese

[dicer123]

My Chinese Goose hatched out 4 Gosling so far, wondering what I should feed them ?cause they are with the gander and another breeding pair who is sitting right now. I feel like they won't be able to eat the oats and barley I feed the adult birds, and there's no grass or pond, like wild goslings have access to.

When I incubator-hatched my Chinese geese last year, I fed the goslings (unmedicated) chick starter with nutritional yeast sprinkled on it for extra niacin. After a few days of eating dry crumbles, I transitioned them to fermented feed - same combination. This BYC article also has info that may be helpful.

Congratulations on your new goslings - they're adorable.

they love fresh grass clippings if you have a way to collect them

You could mix some chick starter into the feed so that the gosling are getting some. It won't hurt the adults.
