URGENT! Something wrong with American Buff goose

[jadeduck13]

I really need help! My American Buff female is lethargic, is drooling at the mouth, has a really wet pasty bum, breathing hard, depressed, just stands in the corner and does not eat or drink. What should I do???

It sounds like your goose laid a soft shelled egg that broke inside of her. I just created this thread to hopefully answer questions like yours. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/875286/your-goose-suddenly-appears-sick-reproductive-problems

It is critical you get your goose to drink. Offer her a fresh bowl of water, fill a kiddy pool, put her in the bathtub.... do whatever it takes to get fluids into her. Best of luck in caring for your goose!
