Hi. My goslings are outside. Also, there is no heatlamp. They are about 2 wks old. My Roman tufted gosling is pulling the down off its own back. He is slightly bleeding. The other goslings are not bothering it. I have used some of the blue antiseptic on the gosling. I'm thinking the gosling might have a red bug/chigger, or maybe some mites. This occurred earlier this afternoon. A neighbor suggested using some Sevin Dust on the gosling. Does anyone know why I shouldn't try Sevin Dust. The gosling is still pulling down and it's 5:30 pm, here.
