pips&peeps :

I got my first female gosling today!!!! Yeah!!!!

I already have a buyer waiting for her too, so I won't get to play with her for very long.

I'll try to get a picture tomorrow.


Make that two...............

LOL Just remember--I'm on your list, right?

I just broke down and set 6 eggs tonight...I have a buyer for most of them--but I'm hoping for at least ONE female!

Another one has pipped and is resting. I hope by tomorrow night to have #3.

My personal opinion is that the quality is low, but to each their own.


I had a flock of Sebastopols that I loved and enjoyed very much and they were beautiful! I had to part with them several years ago, and I've been looking to replace them.

I looked on the link you provided to the Jordan Family Kennels. The pictures of the geese did not look to be of superior quality. I found absolutely gorgeous four month old Sebs, from gorgeous parents, at $30 per gosling.

When I looked on the site, I did not find an NPIP number. I noticed they raise and sell dogs, too, but I didn't see a license linked on their website. I guess I would be cautious. If you do decide to go with this opportunity, I suggest calling first and ask for more information including licenses, etc. The NPIP is a must for shipping, anyway.

I wish you the best finding your geese; I'm still looking for mine, too.

Is this all from the big batch you set? It is time already? That was a fast hatch! The 2 goslings I hatched from your eggs Jean are some of the best pets I've ever owned. They help me weed my garden and stay by my side...basically, they are my little shadows! I love them!

Thank you for putting your auction up when you did!

Yep, these are some of the few that I got to make it to the end of development. I am having a difficult time hatching them this year.

I have around 20 more eggs left, but I have no "Mama" eggs this year. I had some develop and die and for the past two weeks, she hasn't had a fertile egg and now I think she is done laying.

Haha! Adorable!
They love helping.

Balbinka helps me feed the horse... although, she is not good at keeping her distance. She is absolutely convinced that Fiyaero's hooves are just 4 little goslings that I never told her about.

I'm sorry

I went to take pictures and they were asleep. Here is a poor grainy one I took through the top of their brooder box.
