What a great problem to have! Looking forward to seeing the pics.

Well if goslings weren’t in your plans for this year you could have taken the eggs. But too late now lol hopefully there will be people in your area who are looking for geese. Also post on your state thread and the buy sell trade thread. State thread can be found at “ where am I where are you”. Nothing more enjoyable than watching mama and papa goose raise their babies.

Oh, Jaybird 14, I feel your panic! I was so relieved when I didn't have goslings recently because I couldn't figure out where to house them all. The goose house I built last year fits two geese really well.

My "pair" of American Buffs turned out to be a broody girl and her very cranky, protective "sister." I had mistaken the larger, more assertive, louder Golly for a gander (darned newbie geese owner).

Gender was confirmed when Golly also built a nest; Nineteen infertile eggs were the result.

Let us know how you handle your abundance. And I would like to see pictures when the babies hatch!
