I bet ya'll get alot of attention from passing cars. lol once we had goats years ago, and when our nanny had a baby we didn't think she was nursing so we put them both in the back seat of a Volks Wagon fastback and took them to the vets about 25 miles from our home, they rode like dogs sitting in the back seat looking out the window, yep alot of stares as we were going down the interstate. that day. lolI make my husband drive, so Spirit can sit in my lap.
you should hear ours when I dont let them outI wonder how geese' feet stay warm! Do your geese vocalize how much they dont want to be cooped up on snowy days? My mom & I had to run errands one afternoon and had to put the geese us early since there was a chance that we'd return after sundown. They went inside willingly, looking forward to the prospect of food, but once they realized that they weren't going back outside, they threw a goose tantrum. I felt so bad hearing them cry as I walked away from their house. I kept telling myself, at least they'll be safe if we come back at night.
Marty, congrats on the new goats!!!! Also great news about Baby and Lucky making more progress recovering!
Bhonkers, my geese lay down a lot to warm their feet. They also prefer hay bedding to sleep on instead of the frozen ground. I know it's really cold when my ducks put themselves up into coop in the afternoon. Ember likes to throw goose tantrums about being inside, but Spirit prefers to simply give me the stink eye. But they will get to go outside today for a few hours, even if cold and snowy, since I really need to gut clean their room and give them a break. Plus, tomorrow will be a stressful day for Spirit, so he may as well have some fun with his buddies today.
Has anyone heard from J as to Spirit's appointment? I sure hope all is well with no problems!!
Hey guys! Yes, today is Spirit's big day at the vet. I will be sure to give full report when we return. Thanks for the warm wishes!!!
