hiya.. yes.. the explaining. Well.. we had a look in their paddock 3 days ago, and realised although their area/paddock is lush green.. their wasnt that much grass in there.. mainly plantains.. ALOT of plantains actually.. so we put all of our geese (the two sick boys and the healthy ones) into a paddock that we have sitting empty atm.. this paddock is full of lovely grass (and not those pesky weeds.) Very bad care on my part
I've managed to rake and put down some new grass seed into their main area (not easy with one rake and well over 1/2 acre to do lol). I'll be keeping them in the spare paddock whilst this new grass shoots up. I also went out and got the brewest yeast, like suggested, and fed them small dosages of that, along with extra wheat in their morning feed (for protein).... seems this has perked them up!! Update aswell: both these boys are now fully walking.... they stumble now and again, but hey.. it's only been a week, these are great results... theyve gotten heaps better!! So im not sure if it was the lack of grass, lack of niacin, or probably both. :/
