Common questions
Can Sebastopol geese fly?
No. Their curly feathers prevent flight.
What health checks should goslings or adults have?
Ask whether the flock is NPIP-certified for pullorum-typhoid and avian influenza, which many states require for sales and shows. Look for clear eyes and nostrils, a clean vent and a steady walk, and quarantine new birds for 30 days before they meet your flock.
Do Sebastopols need special care?
Yes. They need clean bathing water and dry shelter to keep their feathers healthy.
