If it happens could I be one of the first share holders in your goose raising company. <br />Hippo - could you verify the profit potential for the 1st five years? I never realized Angola had such a demand for geese. Do Angolans do anything with geese that people in the UK don't that would make geese sell like hotcakes over there? Fascinating stuff!<br />and John, don't sell that crazy lady that paints the eggs any except the duds. Wouldn't want her to paint an egg with an $800 gosling inside now would we?

I too worm my chickens as they are mostly free range (very large 1/2 acre pen but still fenced thanks to a plethora of free roaming neighborhood dogs) My question is do you eat your eggs after the worming or as I do discard them? I use ivermectin for "worms". For lice I just add diatomaceous earth in one of their self dug dusting pits.<br />Also goose eggs do make wonderful pysanky. But we always blow them out and use the egg too. Makes the best egg noodles ever!<br />Thanks,<br />SueSue Tokashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14369068667462573850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-47829422437764657132013-04-24T20:13:30.001+00:002013-04-24T20:13:30.001+00:00Haha, too funny.
