In four months my family and i will be moving to Idaho and will be having about 5 acres of land. Its always been a dream of mine to own geese however our twenty foot backyard wasn't a good place for more birds. This brings me to my question. What is the best way to get geese? I know geese imprint better than other birds and we do intend on these being "pets" they won't have to much free range and may live in the house. But is it better to get them from a hatchery a day old or to get hatching eggs and incubate them? Ive heard hatchery goslings can imprint on each other and become afraid of people. I Also hear a lot of places don't treat the babys very well. ( not sure if thats true or not). If its easier to incubate the eggs yourself this brings up new questions.
1. Where is the best place to get the eggs? (sebastopo preferably)
2. Where can i buy a affordable egg incubator that works for geese eggs? Unless a chicken egg incubator works jest as well, i have no idea. It will only be used about once, we only plan on having 2-4 geese.
3. anyone have any experience with goslings that can share some knowledge?
