Spinach interferes with calcium some how so it is dif off limits not sure about whey although my chickens love yogurt my water fowl won't touch it. might not be a bad idea to maybe mix it into their water along with the ACVThank you both for the good suggestions and quick response. I really appreciate your help.
It's a dilemma indeed - the Roman has very expressive eyes and acts as if saying - 'I want to be out of here' when placed with the Chinese. And when separated because she gets chased, attacked and cornered - she looks forlornly at the others wanting to join them. She is so adorable I just want to hug her. I guess I'll have to keep a closer eye on all of them until a suitable gander can be arranged. Perhaps she was a new addition - I wish I had better information, but they were given away without much info or instruction. I've been trolling the web in search of good information and chanced upon BYC - a neighbor and fellow newbie suggested I join immediately for guidance.
I've added 2 tbsp ACV in their water buckets - also for the Chinese as good measure. Wondering if it's ok to give them whey to drink. I think I saw it on TV somewhere, that farmers like to give left over whey to their birds - can't remember if it was just to chickens or geese also. A friend told me not to give them spinach - it may upset their tummies. Is there a list of do's and don'ts for reference when it comes to their diet?
We're glad to have you as a member any one who loves geese is a friend of ours.
So are you going to let her loose with the others? What do you think serv keep them separate from the Chinese still or let them all be together till she gets a gander for the Roman? It's so hard especially since they chase and pick on her, but yet she still wants to be with them, wonder if you made it so neither of the girls the Roman and the Pom couldn't see the others if they might bond better.? need some info serv.
