Sally checking out Mum's choice of nest....looks like she approves!
I have found motorbike tyres the best, the skinny ones you find on scramblers (these are not so high, so the gosling once hatched can get back on the nest easily.) Once the nest is all finished with in a few months time they can be easily cleaned. They can easily be stored in a shed or lean too and seem resiliant to a gooses constant need to investigate and chew! The scrambler size tyre is ideal for Ducks up to medium size geese, I have never kept a large variety of goose like an emden to breed, but having had three as orchard mowers I would think a slightly larger nest would be appreciated.
