canada geese poop

Well i recently rescued a littl baby canada goose from death by pulling him or her off the train track in time so as not to get hit by the train. Anyway ive been doing alot of reading lately and ive come across several articals that state that their poop is good for your garden because it easily broken down and contains a large amount of nutes. I my self have witnessed mold growing on poop in a matter of only 2 days that was left in a dapm place and actually managed to stay wet for more than a few hours. Now my question is would this poop provided one could figure out a way to keep it hydrated be a viable medium for growing our favorite dung and grain loving mushies??? keep in mind canadian geese eating habits espcially in captivity eat alot of grain as well as straw hay and grasses as well as various pond plants in fact his favorite food is cracked corn. I would attempt this my self however im having some personal issue in my life now that i need to resolve before i could ever attempt anything like this. As for a guess on how to keep it hydrated my guess would be using verm but the ratios are the real problem anyway just wondering if this would work.

One problem with it is, geese will eat just about anything so you don't know what your growing your shrooms on. Could be mercury fill fish carcases, bread and corn from parks. Or junk yard special. Not worth the risk.

well nasty smelling water is more likely due to human pollution rather than goose poop and most geese dont carry disease in fact the cdc said that normal goose poop dose not contain any harful diseases. so your cat probably licked poop taht came from an infected goose. also were teh ones to blame for tehse geese being every where resident geese dont migrate because we bred them for hunting purposes and they didnt have parents to show them where to go. and ended up staying and overpopulating the areas they live in.

move to washington and you get to see the health and water pollution from the geese... university of washington fisheries department actually recommended a state-wide extermination of canadian geese for such reasons.

Shit you guys, I'm sure the over abundance of goose shit is a nuisance...but I'm feeling alot of hate and bad karma in this thread. Poor geese man its not like they do it with malice aforethought. Granted you should shoo them away if they are shitting near your house and stuff but why would you kill a bird like that? I imagine myself as vermin in a giants world and then they just start killing me cause I need to take a shit...
peace ppl, keep it real

> why would you kill a bird like that?
Plenty of reasons...
Food, population control, target practice, sport, sanitation, land management, and plenty of others.
But perhaps you think it's more humane to let a species overpopulate to the point where they wallow in their own feces until they starve to death or die of disease.
A lot of times city-slickers both cause the problem by feeding the damn birds and then prevent it from being solved by objecting to population control measures.
