I have setup a shed for my goslings, (expecting 40-60 of them), I have place 6 inches of course sand (left off from when I raised Pekin ducklings for eating) then I will place straw down each day to cover the mesh.
At 10 - 14 days old they will be placed outside with some mother gooses to let them raise them.
Water, I have a round tray about 2 inches height by 2 foot diameter inside a square tray 2 inches height by a 3 foot square.
I have set this up on the advice of a goose breeder that has been doing it for 30 years this way.
So for you straw or a blanket will be fine, the pooh of goslings are logs, so with two, you could just remove the logs each day and it will be very clean until they go outside.
