Im using pine flakes (the large kind, not the finer stuff) but they spend most of the day in the run. I guess he still could have ingested a smaller piece. If he does have something, how would I get it out? Can I just massage his neck? What do you recommend for coop bedding? What about horse pellets?
If she has been out on grass it may be that too, gosling's chew on all sorts of stuff, so who knows. If you locate a bump along the neck you would, with your fingertips, guide it slowly back down the neck. I know some people give a few drops of olive oil in a scenario like this, I'd have to look into it more, I think there are times where it's more destructive than beneficial.
