Two Week Old Goslings are MONSTERS (Growth Progress)
It's incredible to see how quickly our goslings have grown. They are only two weeks old, but they have progressed to the "monster" stage of growth.
About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. Our dream is that someday we are able to transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.

"This bucket of greens should last them, I don't know a couple of hours." They're so cute though.
A friend kept his fowl in a large yard/pen that was divided in two. The birds lived in one half at a time. He kept mustard greens growing in the half the birds did not use. This way, putting them out to pasture was a matter of opening a gate from their sleeping quarters and they were safe for the day in the large yard/pen. I love the way you two love your birds. Nice job.
They are getting so big. I love the way they follow you around, that is so cute.

Kudos to you for feeding them greens and keeping their feed organic. That’ll give them a better chance to flourish and live better. I see a lot of farmers and breeders giving them the commercial stuff and no greens.

All poultry benefit from succulent feed such as grass, mustard or carrot greens, Swiss chard, etc. We feed ours kitchen scraps from preparation of human food, and they get a hydrating meal of scraps with cooked oatmeal in the middle of the day, even in summer. In winter, this meal is great to warm and hydrate them in the coldest part of the day. They love getting different kinds of feed.

You clearly don't understand that you're talking about something you clearly have no clue with an eagle will Target and kill adult geese on a regular basis hell certain populations of eagles actually specialize in this so those little farm ducks would be nothing to them! The ducks on this Farm could be picked up by a red tail hawk let alone a bald eagle and God forbid a golden were to show up there even more powerful than the balds. Having to deal with eagles for many years and there ain't a damn bird on this farm that the eagles would have the slightest bit of difficulty on in the adult form let alone the little fuzz ball stage and needless to say a little bit of mesh over top of a outside enclosure makes it instantly impossible for them to get in and not overly complicated to do. But i can guarantee you if he keeps putting those birds out in the open pasture even as adults at some point a bird of prey will discover them and we'll make a lunch of one of them. Out where I live it would have already happened because it's an extremely common occurrence out where he is out on the East Coast the Eagles are probably far less programmed for eating ducks and geese.

They are a perenial and come back bigger and leafier(sp?) every year for up to 15 years. As long as you just dont let them seed you will be aces. Also, they will pollinate themselves if you want seeds. Been an staple for people for millenia so it is not unheard of except recently. Pretty full-proof "crop" to grow.
baby pool time... they also fit under the faucet of a utility tub if you want to bathe a few at a time... show the dirtiest some extra love.
