Goslings bullying other gosling?

[OceanWaves]

I'm not sure what to do here, but it's been happening for a while now so I thought I'd ask.

I got three goslings a few weeks ago, two females/ one male. The largest of the goslings, a female, seems to be constantly nibbled on her back by the other two. I hoped at first it was just because she was wet but I caught the other two biting her feathers. This hasn't stopped and I'm getting worried they could be bullying her, hoping to get some advice. I haven't experienced this with my other geese before. What should I do?

Bullying is kinda protocol with goslings. Some times it gets better as they grow up and learn there roll in the clutch. It dose help to do a 12-24 hour time out for the one doing the damage. I know you probably dont have this option but I remove the problem child and put them with the next older group for a day. They are so happy to be back with there friends it seem to cure it.

You might also try giving them a toy with bits that they can pull and yank on but can’t be swallowed to give them a distraction from chewing on the other gosling.

I'll try doing these things, thank you both!
