My male African Goose has a swollen foot, HUGE! I've separated him from my ducks and female goose. Before this happened the others would attack him! Every chance they got. So hes been in a pen to himself for about a week.He can't walk, he just lays there. When I go to feed him he'll try to get up by balancing with his wings. It's so sad what can I do?
 
Check the bottom of the foot for injury. Sounds like it could be bumble foot. If you search BYC there are great threads on bumble foot and how to treat.
 
I would if he didn't freak out on me when I go into the pen. Thank you for the info.
 
My geese freak out when i pick them up. But they eventually calm down once i have them in my arms. You do want to check and treat that foot. If it's all swollen up, it is probably badly infected.
