Description
The goose is one of the most efficient feed-to-meat convertors known to man. This efficiency is not limited to fancy supplements and grain. The goose can graze areas normally considered waste and convert the vegetation to highly palatable muscle. Small amounts of labor are need in the production of geese. In many instances, this bird can go virtually unattended for much of its growth period. Investment in facilities and equipment is minimal. The young gosling must be kept warm, dry, and supplied with starter and fresh water. This can normally be accomplished in old buildings with used equipment.
