Goosepimple has some and so do I. I know Amanda (GP) has at least a couple of goslings, though I don't know if she is wanting to sell them.

I've got one gosling so far (un-sexed) and a goose sitting on 7 eggs, though I'm beginning to get a bit less hopeful about those.

So the answer is - maybe, in a couple of months.

Same as Jaykay, we still have 1 goose sitting, a late sitter, she won't be off for perhaps 2 weeks yet, maybe less.  We have 2 by incubator but they are in love with me and my daughter and I don't think she'd part with them. The Steinbachers themselves have had only 1 hatchling so far, with :fc: for the existing sitter.... I also have someone asked me previously so will have to supply there first I'm afraid.


Will keep a hold of your Fieldfare name though  :wave:

I'm a member of the British Waterfowl Association so I can look up breeders in their breeders directory if you want? Where are you?

Oooh - you're in luck! There are only two in there - one in Kent (who I spoke to the other day because friends were looking for Ne Nes and he breeds them too - good fall back if you want to travel) and the other in Yorkshire. Details:
