Eglu for two geese?

[themadhousechooks]

Hi all- we have two month old Chinese geese who have now been put out with our two female Pekin Ducks and are all cohabiting nicely ! The ducks are pleased to see them in the morning when I take them out and visa versa.
My two Perkins sleep in their eglu at night and it’s been great. Do you think it would suit my two geese as I am looking for the most suitable housing. They are in a Avery so I can’t be having a large shed or anything like that so just wondered if there are any suggestions out there. They won’t be going outside at night for a while yet though!

thanks in advance

I have heard that preditors can get into eglu meshing. Cute geese!

We don’t use the run. Just the house and they are fantastic. We have one for four chooks. One for about ducks and that’s why I’d prefer one for the geese as they work perfect for what I need. I can’t comment on the mesh run but 100% recommended the house itself. They have separate averies.

Maybe a dog egluwould be better? You could probably make a door for it

No, like the eglu you can buy for dogs from tsc or walmart.

Ahh ok. I’m a UK resident. I just wanted suggestions on if anyone keeps geese in the Brand Eglu. As they suit my other pets perfect. If not we shall just custom build another home. Thanks for the message!

How much space do you have?
Geese ideally should have a big pond a huge area to roam. I think egloos are pretty small.
