I got suckered into getting four goslings. Oops. Their faces were too cute. One of them had gunk around one of its eyes and both eyes were swollen. He was active, though, and just as talkative as the others. When we came home after being out for a bit, he was lethargic. He also sort of fell into their water dish - it’s not super deep, but deep enough that his head got submerged. I’m worried about aspiration now. He’s drastically more lethargic, still peeping, but overall just acting... off. The tip of his beak is blueish. I’ve been holding him or keeping him under the heat lamp. I have poultry nutri-drench on hand but I’ve held off on it. This is my first time with geese and this is my favorite little guy. Is there anything I can do to help him pull through?
 
Here’s a photo of the little guy. Forgot to attach it to the post.
