It amazes me how fast chicks grow after hatching, but they have nothing on Geese. We are housing them in a low trailer as they do not need the height for roosts like chickens. This will enable us to tow the house. We have a heat lamp to keep the goslings warm during the first couple of weeks. The back of the house is covered with black plastic to protect them from cold winds. In about six weeks, we will move them into the orchard to start their job eating the grass under the trees. Please visit the chicks and the goslings when you are here for a Strawberry Days Event.
