Re: [CHICKENS-101] Goose issues

How old is he? Could he have gotten into any medicated chick feed? If not it may be injury but it also may be a niacin deficiency. Google ill goose and look for all his symptoms. I may have missed something.
That's just my guess. I hope he's doing better.

Subject: [CHICKENS-101] Goose issues

Marcia and I went and got a load of hay. When we got home I noticed one of our african grey geese was in the water pan. Figured ok that's normal. Then after feeding noticed him laying down to eat. So I went and picked him up. He can barely stand and has his wings out a bit. I turned my rabbit loose in the chicken coop and put the goose in the hutch. Gave him water and feed. I checked on him 2 hrs later thought he was dead. He was flipped upside down on his head. When I went to remove him he moved a little. I reset him up again and he hasn't flipped sense. We had that ant incident a few days ago that killed bucky. We also had a a set of goats in pen 3 tear threw the fence to get into pen 1 and 2 that holds the pigs, geese and smaller goats. So there is a possibility that luna a mean 8yr old boer goat stomped him too. I checked him. No broken bones but he feels kind of mushy in his leg muscles.
Anyone have any suggestions on what I can do for him. I put a sheet of metal up on the fencing so they can't rip threw it anymore.
