Curiosity got the best of me. They each have at least 6 possibly more! Isure hope at least one has a good hatch!

I finally got eggs and my female is currently sitting on a nest of 7 eggs. I'm hoping some of them hatch.

Unfortunately, it seems we have 4 males to our 1 female, so gonna have to rehome some males.

what breeds do you have ? =)

While on vacation my second goose went broody. I have no idea how many eggs each one is sitting on.

. We shall see if they ever get off their nests.

just assume they started sitting the day you got back and go from there =)

No broody ducks yet and only 2 are laying. Im hoping the other 3 will start. I put in 14 more of their eggs last night. I already have 4 in there, they are due in 10 days.
The baby loved these new duckies, I had them in a box and showed them to her she was wide eyed looking at them. She will be 4 mos old Tuesday. I wanted to take a pic of her with them sitting around her since shes not into grabbing things yet.

That would be a sweet pic.

flockman did you see someone was asking if anyone was interested in a Blue American gander on here last week? I am pretty sure it was in Indiana.

American buff. They are proving to like to scare my little one a bit too much during breeding season.

one more to hatch an thats the last egg I have

The 3 eggs momma goose was sitting on where no good , and she killed the one she hatched found the baby dead ..

she is still brooding on a empty nest , I had to take her nest away she isn't eating and she won't leave her nest , I showed her and the dad the older goosling and dad was very protective over the baby but the goosling didn't like him he came running to me it was so cute

Momma goose poop is black .. is it from not eating

Block her from getting near the nest. I just had to do that with mine. Did it last year with her too. She went broody on a golf ball & im hoping she will start laying again since she only gave me 6 eggs.
