Chortle Chook Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Excellent Lianne How do wee goslings compare to ducklings and chicks? Are they a lot messier and tamer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller30 Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 They are not as messy and are so tame from the minute they see you they think your mum call me from the brooder and when I go in and say what's the matter they go quiet and start talking to me I had to help both these babies hatch because of humidity I was like chipping away at a dinosaur egg but we made it they are called Alan and Steve my son named them .Steve has some problems with his legs but we are doing exercises and praying he will be on his feet soon and they should have some ducklings as friends in the next couple days leanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
