Gosling.... Four weeks Old


Oxxie started getting 'its' feathers and it appears that 'it' is going to be a gray goose. Weighing in at 3 lb 1/2 oz this week, we are growing up fast! I can always tell if Blair has had the goose on the table putting 'it's' diaper on because a fine down is left behind. YUCK! Between 'it' losing 'its' down, and the constant mess of bedding Blair has her hands full. She said last night, "It really isn't a hard chore at all." This was after Dad was explaining to her that it is almost time for the goose to find a new home. Once again, Blair tried to convince him that it can work out to keep the goose.




This past week proved to be very taumatic for us, as the goose has caused a raucous around our house. I'll blog about that next, but first I wanted to show you 'it's' new feathers.



Feathers that are coming in right above the wing.

And lastly, our tail feathers.
