I think my gossling is doing well, considering. Her show was accidentally cracked open and there was quite a bit of blood immediately following. She looked fully developed, with the exception of the fact that she was still connected to the egg and she had a yolk sack. I wanted to try to save her...

You need to write a children's book! That's a great story! ❤️

Hey there! Thanks for thinking of me. Yes we've been busy growing our farm! In fact, we are just hatching goslings right this minute!

Oh geez! I actually put wood shavings inside the incubator once one of the goslings was born because I noticed that it seemed the gosling was wedged between a couple goose eggs. So what should I do now? I know I'm not supposed to open it up and play around with the eggs, but what's safer...

That's exactly what I meant to be able to do. Vets are generally clueless about waterfowl. Like they've never had one on their table before! You've is awesome! She passed during the early morning hours

I'm going to try she's drinking water and she's not breathing as heavily now she may have just been freaking out from the experience. I bandaged her up and I put Neosporin ointment in her wounds with cotton balls. Along with that colorful gauze. But she's hanging her head down low I wish you...

Yeah the vets don't really know anything about ducks. I was there with a goose in my goats the other day and they don't know how to do ultrasounds they don't know how to do basic house care I ended up having to do my own. So I have no faith that they'll be able to take care of my duck. And then...

911, I saw a coyote snatch my duck. It's a jumbo pekin. I screamed and chased him with my arms waving hoping that he would get scared and drop her. Apparently he did and she's having a hard time breathing and she has a few puncture wounds. I'm thinking there might be one in her lung. Is there...

She stood up for the first time yesterday and today she's much more alert. Thank you for asking!

I got her first feeding done. Easy peasy but still nerve-wracking putting it in. Gave her a shot of b vitamins, antibiotics, borrow it gabapentin. Hopefully that will do it. We'll have to start all over again early this evening.

I'm waiting for the supplies but meanwhile I am going to give her some chick formula in a cup very watery so that she can maybe drink it while we're waiting. She looks like she's just holding stable. I did give her some antibiotics because her poop is green and someone told me that either green...

Do you think that red tubing that you use for chickens is the right kind of tubing or is it just not hard enough I'm just thinking it's not hard enough to push its way down all that way. That's crazy! I just bought that syringe and tube! And it's one day delivery so I'm going to get it...

Her poop is still green with a little white in it. I guess that means that she must be eating some of the grass that I gave her. Otherwise it would just be clear correct?

I don't think the meloxicam helps. She doesn't behave any differently. I will say if I palpate her neck it is not painful for her and if I stretch it and sort of do some kind of physical therapy with very slight massage she doesn't complain. However where that kink is she is a bit sensitive. I...
