Good morning,
My male goose is approximately 8 years old. For the last several years, he has had spine-y and splinter-y sticks where his feathers used to be. I am attaching a pic to show it best. What can I do for this?
I thought it was just because he was a male and more "rough and...
hello,
About a month ago a very tiny baby duckling appeared where I work. Apparently had been wandering around with no mother to be seen for a few days. I have two geese, so I took it home and provided it the proper care. My plan was (and is) to let him go, as I cannot maintain a duck in...
I have a 5 yr old male (imprinted on me) and a 3 yr old female (tamed by me) who currently live in the fenced in yard. The three cats and them co-exist peacefully. Recently I have begun to consider adopting a dog. I understand there is a risk, but I am hopeful that if I establish myself as...
Hello,
My female is approx 2 years old and is currently in an egg-laying cycle. (She is a pet, as I have just two -- and they are my babies!) Last night, Tabby Goose came inside and collasped on the floor. She appeared especially large -- due to eggs, I believe. She has not be able to walk...
Hola,
I ended up getting a female friend for my now almost two year old male goose. She's young, not sure exact age, but younger than him.
I woke up this morning to find like 50 large wing feathers on the ground. I went and watched them in their pool, and her feathers continued to just drop...
Hola all,
So… Lucy Goose is 5 months old. When she was born, I thought she was a boy…. then I thought she was a girl… and NOW I am being told that she is a male because of the "bump" on her beak. …. so I thought I'd inquire with all the professional fowl lovers on this site! What do...
Hola everyone,
It's been a while since I have posted.
I have a single brown Chinese goose. She will be four months on the 20th of June. Ella esta mi corozon!
Due to where I live, getting her a companion is not in the cards at the moment. (Landlords would fall over, and have made it...
Hello All,
Yes, it is me again. Yet another question regarding raising my now 9-day-old gosling. As the subject line states, I have been mixing cooked quinoa into the goose-feed, per my boyfriend's suggestion. Luz (the goose) seems to enjoy this just fine, and also has opportunity to graze...
I am reading the Goose Training thread -- and it is great! I'm almost mid-way through it, so I apologise if this is answered further in… but Oliver (if memory serves) offered wonderful advice. Starting with the "wing spread" and the hiss, then a chest bump, and then if things escalate --...
Hello all,
So I sewed my first two goose "diapers" today. An amateur job, but they seem to fit Luz the Goose. However, he is freaking out when I put them on him. They are not too tight, and in fact may run a little on the loose side. However, he shrieked and ran around -- really scared...
Hello All,
I am completely new to all things geese. I am torn and need advice.
I live in Panama. My boyfriend brought a newly hatched gosling home three days ago. He "rescued" it from a friend's farm. The friend was out of town and so wasn't able to separate the newborns from the...
