December was goose month for the livestock conservatory you can find there facebook page where they posted allot of interviews. They also have a breeders list by state. Geese are very underrated. Most breeds develop to meat weight way before turkeys and at a much lower cost there meat is the closest to beef you will get from the world of feathers. I dont want to hurt anyone's feelings and yes I think they make great pets. But keeping a breed of any fowl going has allot to do with demand for there products. There is a huge demand for goose eggs as eating eggs there my favorite but there are only a few breeds that produce eggs for 8 month out of the year and if your going to have girls for eggs well what do you do with the boys. Mostly your eggs are very limited with most of the larger breeds. I could go on but shouldn't. Just saying why most breads are on the endangered list in the US. Because Many farmers who raised for production retired or have gone to raising for the hatchery,s .So there is a low demand for there meat because there is no marketing for it in many country's goose is one of there main meats.
Personally Love all 12 of my sidekicks. I am working on improving my breed. But Im still in the learning stage.
