Gosling poop question

[cmillerrun89]

How watery is TOO watery for gosling poop? They are on Kalmbach duck & goose and it's since gotten a bit firmer since switching from flock raiser crumbles but most of the time it's straight wet butt explosions (for lack of a better description LOL) It looks almost exactly like their crumbles drenched in water. I thought it was normal from what I've seen in ducks before but the internet has me worried because most goose poop looks super firm/squishy. I don't have a good photo at the moment. They are just around 4 weeks old now. They are still super adorable, sharts and all LOL

Are you feeding any grass, or greens?

That may help firm them up a bit. Goose poop can be runny, but often is more firm than ducks. The young ones can be a bit more watery just because they aren't earing as much forage yet.

Ok sounds good! I’m sure they’ll be excited for some new stuff. Thank you!
