Hello,
I've recently obtained 4 goslings that I'm going to keep with my chickens and ducks on about 1/2 acre that they free range all day. Currently the chicken and duck feed is free-choice in some hanging feeders near their coops.
I'd like the geese to primarily live off pasture. We have plenty of it for 3 seasons of the year. My question is - given that they will be living in the same area as the chicken and duck feed, will they still graze for most of their food? Or will they prefer to fill up primarily on the chicken/duck feed that I have out?
Thanks for the help!
