Welcome Zack and Zeva

Craig bought 2 more Pilgrim gosling back from a guy today to keep Zara company. These gosling are 3 weeks old, which will be around the same age as Zara.

They are taken away from their parents and were scared the whole day when we bought them back. Both gosling were sitting down the entire time. Lots of care and love were shown to them to let them know we will not harm them. We introduce Zara to them the next day and there seem to be a little anti social behavior going on but not for long.

Zoey- The Watermelon Monster!

Look at how quick Zoey chomp down her watermelon treat. And she learn pretty quick that the red parts are sweeter than the white parts!

Gosling - 4 weeks old

This week you get to see the significant change in Zena's tail and wings. There's proper feathers growing out of her tail and her wings are starting to develop proper feathers too.
