I purchased two roughly two week old Chinese goslings from a neighbor yesterday and generally they are very active and personable, and eat grass and starter well. One of them though will relatively often shake his head and water will fly out, sort of like what you’d expect when a drooling dog would shake its head. It’s slimy and about the texture of water that will sometimes come out of a chickens mouth when they drink too much, and occasionally it’s stained with what I imagine is food. Sometimes he will also make a tiny bit of a bubbling sound or a little hum when he breaths but this isn’t often. Is this an infection or defect of some kind or is it just because he is young and doesn’t know how to keep his food down?
