GOOSE BREEDING THREAD - for breeding, incubating, hatching and rearing.

That is ridiculous, how could someone not be interested in them after getting them. Enough to not know if they are laying and where. I guess not everyone is cut out to be goose parents.
When mine are out im with them which is all day everyday, only times im not is when im checking on my mom and making her meals. It wouldnt surprise my neighbors much if one day i flipped my lid and was out with the geese on all fours with a fork and a bottle vinegarette dressing grazing with them lol

Well, it appears my dewlap flock unexpectedly expanded this afternoon. A couple in my neighborhood got five goslings from me two years ago. They are going through some serious personal problems and asked if I could take their geese. So, here they are, settling into their new place. The couple got them from me as straight run and never did figure out gender. Based on vocals and personality, I am sure there are four girls and one boy.

Ooh, windfall!! How nice!

Well, not all people are as besotted as we are with geese, and at least they did look after them well. After all, 5 goslings survived and they look great. J, will they be useful to you in your breeding programmes?

Thanks, guys! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them yet. I worked so hard to get my flock under 30 (I have 29) and now all of a sudden I'm up to 34 again. I hope the couple returns for them, but if not, I'll figure something out. They are certainly nice enough to add to my breeder group.

[servpolice]
