goslings

Hey y’all, I have 4 three week old goslings, and was wondering if you can keep week olds with them or if they might get injured. Any feedback is appreciated!

Hi. I have four 4 week old male Sebastopol goslings that need homes. I'm in Hollister California (Central Coast). They are extras from a setting of nine eggs I had shipped from across the country. ALL NINE HATCHED. So we are keeping five and have the extras available for re-homing. They are DNA...

Hello! I have 4 three month old (approximately) geese and I'm looking for pond ideas. They currently have a large kiddie pool and an old bathtub so we are good for this summer but I would like to start figuring out something more permanent for next year. Looking to see what you guys have that...

They are about 5 weeks now, we mainly feed them waterfowl starter, lettuce, and they have access to grass. The thing is we feed them quite a lot of lettuce as they just really love it and I mean adore it, it’s all they want really! they look quite large when they lay down so I’m really worried...

So our 2 week old goslings have a small issue and I’m not sure what it is! one of our goslings is always trying to cuddle up to the other for warmth, and the other is always stretching it’s legs out and panting like she’s way too hot! Do they need different temperatures or does the other have a...

So since we had 2 goslings hatch out of the 6 eggs we got I figured I’d make a post about them since they are just so darn cute and have so much personality haha The larger and day older of the two (we call him seb or Sebastian rn but he’s probably a girl although we’ve taken too much to calling...

So our 2 baby goslings at the moment aren’t at all interested in chick feed which was originally suggested to us, but after doing more research it looks like people are against using chick feed because it’s not enough for them (don’t worry it’s not medicated so nothing dangerous in it) I’m just...

We have 2 baby goslings right now (literally newly hatched about 1/2 days ago) which were the only ones to hatch out of 6 eggs that we got, they seem very happy and healthy but the only issue is.. they hate staying in the brooder! No matter what we do they cry to come out! Actually one of them...

I have been hatching chicks and geese. Twice now, I have had entire broods suddenly up and die. They'll be fine until I come back and they will be peeping loudly and gasping for breath. Almost immediately all of them will lie down, gasp for breath, peep, and die. Does anyone know what this is...

Hey all! I'm making preparations for two goslings and a set of chicks to arrive in June, and I would like to raise them all together to help with mixed flock dynamics at a later age. Has anyone had experience/success brooding chicks and goslings together?

Hello everyone, I'm hoping to build a carolina inspired coop for my chickens 8x6hen house with an inclosed run all together 8'x30', so far we have 4 australorps and 2 gosling we have 15 more chickens on the way in June, I built this outdoor area for them temporarily while we build our new coop...

I’ve hatched 9 goose eggs and upon removing shells I’ve noticed a few have this green goo inside them. Any thoughts on what this is? Babes are all doing ok so far. Less than 24hrs old.

(1) I am not new to chickens, I actually new of this forum in 2011 when I first started with my backyard chickens. Since I have acquired a couple of goslings. (2) I have zero chickens but two goslings. (3) Chinese/African brown (4) My goslings are actually being raised as pets but if one or...

Hello. I have a question for those who hatch a more significant amount of chicks/ducklings/goslings. What brand of incubator do you use? I am interested in purchasing an incubator that can hold 100+ eggs, I'm curious about what brand works for you guys. Second, what style of brooder do you have...

Greetings from Northwest Washington. My I have a Chinese water goose she's brown and she's my first goose! This is her first year laying eggs and she started in December. I was pretty concerned and I started taking her eggs away thinking it was too early for her to hatch goslings considering the...

Hello! I’m planning on buying a huge new flock of chickens from McMurray and want to add a guard goose. We have terrible predators (I’m getting poultry netting for those forsaken hawks but we also have rats and other predators) and I think it’s a great solution until I get LGDs. Since I’m...

Im looking for a gosling or 2 to add to my flock. My gosling died protecting my flock from a raccoon. Im in ohio and am willing to travel a couple of hours to get one. Id prefer a african brown gosling but I am open to different breeds.
