Goslings of 2015 Hatch-a-Long

[Miss Lydia]

Ok thanks hoping that ones a goose and ones a gander so I can hatch them next year! By the way one of the goslings has spradle leg, I have bandaged them together like a figure 8 with like a neck in the middle, and I know I have to leave it on 24 hours and then I can take it of again and he should be fine? Isn't that right

? Any tips please help!!

May have to leave it longer than 24 hrs but check then. https://sites.google.com/a/poultrypedia.com/poultrypedia/poultry-podiatry don't let them be on slick flooring at all.

I will read the link, and I have them in a box, with chopped straw in it

My Pilgrim goose laid 6 eggs as soon as I gave her a nest box. She's been sitting on them reliably, so, even though she is very young and this is her first attempt at a clutch, we thought we would leave her on them and see what happens.

And this is what happened?

Just sexed all the birds again, 6 males two females.

So I have some people stopping by to look at four of the males, and I ordered one Buff pair and one Toulouse female from Mertzer hatchery. That'll give me, what, 6-4+2=4 males and 2+2=4 females. Then Mango's clutch of eggs should be ABOUT 50/50 right?
