Welcome! I use the Forums and Articles tabs at the top of the page to do research. You can get lost for hours. It's nice to know you are minutes away from getting help with questions and emergencies!

Howdy, longtime forum lurker here
Pronouns: they/them

I don't have any chickens at the moment, though I've had a-plenty in the past - mostly Barred Rocks and Buff Orpingtons. Right now I've got a small flock of waterfowl; seven Welsh Harlequin ducks, and one African goose. Yes, I know how this forum feels about geese needing to be kept in pairs. Yes, I do plan on getting Agnes a partner when I'm able. I'd appreciate if I wasn't dogpiled for having just the one goose, thank you.

Other critters inhabiting my little farm are my two dogs (an australian shepherd and a terrier mix), my two cats (don't worry, they're spoiled-rotten indoor kitties, no cat-derived ecological damage here on my property), a corn snake, a curly hair tarantula, and a community aquarium of fish.

Welcome to BYC! Enjoy all the great info here!

Glad to meet you. I love that close up of Agnes in your avatar picture! She looks like a character. Enjoy your many animals of all types, and welcome to BYC.

She's a character for sure! Thank you! <3

Also -- apologies if my bit in my introduction about the forum feeling about paired geese sounds snippy - I don't mean anything by it. I'm sure y'all are all fabulous, but I know how things can get a bit heated in forum settings (especially animal forums, us animal folk are pretty passionate.) I've been dogpiled before and it's not a great feeling, to say the least. Just trying to look out for my mental health here.

Well, you cut off the dogpile before it happened. You must have learned something from Agnes.
