I have a goose named Lucy Goosey and she is about 17 months old. She has been sitting on a nest of fake eggs and a couple chicken eggs (I remove her eggs when she was laying cuz they are not fertile) for a couple of weeks (that's also how long it's been since she laid). Saturday, I went out to feed the birds, and ask usual, in went and checked on Lucy. She was just sitting here and wasn't moving or honking or anything. I picked her up with ZERO fight from her and brought her inside. I figured the heat was getting too her. She still will not eat or drink. She usually just stands in the cage or sits sometimes. I have been forcing electrolyte water, egg yolk, soaked oats, with brewers yeast, liquid vitamin b12. What else should I do. I can't do a vet for 2 more days. Did she just got zapped of hers nutrients or could something else be going on? Thanks. Picture is of Lucy just now in her cage.

I think something more could be going on because even broody geese are ravenous when they leave the nest. The only thing I can think of for the moment is to keep doing what you’re doing to keep her stable until she can get to the vet. Honestly you’re doing pretty much what you should be doing in this situation.
