    Goose looks like she’s gasping

    Hi, my 3 1/2-4 year old American buff goose. She’s moving pretty normal. This is the first day she’s started doing this. She’s make a couple squeaky sounds but aside from that she’s been quiet. I’d upload a video but this website is a pain when it comes to videos.
