Dumb Question What is Normal for Goose Poop?

[Haunted55]

The reason I am asking is I have found some dried white poop splotches in the goose pen and as I was feeding and watering tonight I saw one of my embdens have one. Is this normal and if not what could be causing it and what do I do.

Most days the geese and ducks are allowed out of their pen to range in the yard. Not today, as I could not be here with them. Pen diet is Flock Raiser and I have been giving them rolled oats and sunflower seeds at night as a treat. Occasionaly they will find some of the scratch I scatter for the chickens in the yard.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am new to geese and ducks and do not want to overlook something that could be a bad sign.

Chickens and other fowl do not pee. The white stuff in poop is the pee, so there for it is natural.

Oh thank-you!!! I was concerned because it appeared to be just water and the white. I don't want to make mistakes if I can help it.

This is how my goose poop looks , they are free ranged

Okay.....this is how some of them look but what I was seeing was a splat of dried white and when I saw it come from the goose it was clear water with white mixed in it. No green, no yellow/brown to indicate grain, just clear fluid with white.

That is a form of goose pee so to speak it is called uric acid .

As long as it's nothing to worry about I'm fine with that!!! Thanks so much for the replies.
