Am grateful to report that the pecking and pulling feathers by my two new Pilgrim goslings has stopped. Have 2 ganders and 2 young geese only about 2 to 3 weeks old. The two ganders had each other bald on top and down their necks from nibbling one another. I bought a wire dog kennel at the tractor store to put them on grass since it was warm enough. I put them back in their basement brooder every night but they spend all day on grass along w/their grower feed & water.. The bald spots are now white with new feathers and they are looking healthy and happy and I haven't observed any pecking of each other. Think they needed more space and the ability to graze. Just this week we were given a used cyclone 8x4 kennel which we set up on the lawn. I can move it every day to a new patch of grass and this has seemed to do the trick and stop the pecking problem. So guess they felt crowded. Hope that's the end of it.
