Hi everyone, my DB went to the feed store on his lunch break today to pick me up some chick feed. We have just gotten week-old pullets on Wednesday, and the little buggers ate more than I expected. Anyway that was all he was supposed to get, and he is not an impulse buyer at all so I was really surprised when he called and I could hear chirping in the background. Apparently he saw a little week-old goose at the shop and just on a whim decided to bring her home (the guy at the shop told him it was female). When I asked him why, he said it was because I mentioned long ago that geese are sometimes used as watchdogs to protect chickens, but our chickens will not be free range!
Please, help me, I researched for months before I got the chicks but all I really know about geese is that when they bite it hurts! Give me some emergency tips on the immediate care I need to give this little creature.
