Some of you have been following that I got a rescue baby from the feed store on Monday that was found inside a post office mailing room. I'm sure this thing was shipped from a hatchery as there is no way it could be wild; it looks to be in too good of a shape and it has imprinted on people. The feed store told my DB that is was a female gosling, but I know nothing about waterfowl and wanted some people who obess over poultry to give me their opinion. I really just want to know if it is a duck or a goose above all (since that effects it's diet needs), but if you have an inkling of the gender and/or the breed I wold love to know that as well.
Details: Blackish-dark brown feet and bill. The underside of the bill is spotted with pink/flesh colored blotches. Amber colored eyes. Down is solid-color light brown with not a touch of any other color. It loves to eat everything it sees: weeds, chick starter mash, bugs, my toes, basically any thing that moves or looks different from the floor.
