Hi there. My 3 year old goose is losing her flight feathers in April. I live in oregon and it's been in the 30s at night still. She's seems to be acting fine but her wings have basically no feathers. Should I be giving her some sort of nutrient while she's going thru this? She gets flock raiser, water fowl treats and scraps. Also free ranges but we don't have much grass. Been keeping a heat lamp on for her at night to keep warm. Any help appreciated.
 
Normal.

Molting is tough, extra protein, minerals, and vitamins can be a big help during this time, otherwise her diet is perfectly fine.
Thank you. Talked to a gal at the feed store today too and said it was probably the warm spirt we had but she should be fine.
