He is a canada goose We're pretty sure he's a gander. We haven't done the vent test but he's very territorial, He's got a deep honk, we can tell the difference between the females.

We live on a river and 7 months ago we had a hatchling that was left by its parents. There are tons of geese everywhere and he goes to the river to swim but he doesn't pay attention to the other geese. Instead he'll find a person swimming or fishing and he'll go hang out with them until they...

I'm feeding grass and waterfowl feed

We found a baby Canadian gosling left for dead in our yard where we have a platform nest. The family left it and didn't come back for 3 days. So we took it in and have been raising it. It's now about 2 and a half weeks old and has become very attached to us, we named it Kirby. My husband and i...

How old are they? I have a 10 day old Canada gosling that was orphaned and I'm worried about it growing up alone.

I have 7 hens around 13 months old.

My sister also has 7 hens from the same brood and...

just an update on my girls! Since I have changed the the red light to a lower wattage and have the light goin off at night for 9 hours, my hens are doing much better! I've implemented an additional roost and move the nesting boxes next to each other. I am now getting 5 eggs a day as opposed to 2.

no, it is a red reptile light, i had a 40 watt in there and just changed it to 60 watt a few weeks ago...hmmm the 60 watt is brighter so maybe that was the problem, but now ive just set the timer to go of at 9pm and back on at 5am and i think ill change back the the 40 watt.

my coop is 5x6x4, my run is 10x16 I just put another roost up in the coop and changed my light timer to simulate the light i'll get in the summer. instead of having it on all night.

Help! I have 8 chickens, born in June 2020.I started getting eggs around the end of october. Getting a couple a day at first, then by December getting 6 or 7 a day. I live in southern oregon and there have only been a few days below freezing. I have a small insulated coop with a 60 watt red heat...

I've put a small red heat bulb in my coop and have it on at night, I'm wondering if this is causing my chickens to be more unsettled. Can they see with the red light and will they have a harder time sleeping with it on? It's not really that cold yet but i have a small coop and with the time...

I do have a large door on the outside of the cool that I open every morning and it stays open until they roost for the night. I leave the window open at night but the coop is actually all opened up for an average of 12-14 hours a day.

We were going to put in another window would a small exhaust fan be better. The coop does have power to it.

I'm new to the chicken community and have so many questions! I have 8 hens, a small coop, about 4x6x4 and a large fully enclosed run 10x 16. My hens are about 14 weeks old and I need to add nesting boxes. My coop has 1 window, the chiclen door on the run on the outside for me to get in and...

My chicks are 13 weeks old and this is new to me so I've got many questions! I'm finishing the last of my chick starter feed. I'm wondering what type of feed to switch them to. I've read they may start laying between 15 and 20 weeks and we're going into fall, seems they are starting to mold a...
