I would have to vote geese, I've got about a dozen of geese and I give them no grain. They're out 24/7 foraging,They have a 10x8 shed to sleep in at night. I almost never have to clean it though since they prefer to sleep outside.. they alert me to predators, and honestly they cost me the least out of the other 5 different types of poultry I raise. The only thing I spend on them is bedding, they do poop quite a lot but I'd rather deal with that then having to spend over $200 of feed a month for my chickens, ducks, turkeys, guineas and pheasants..
Geese require a lot less than chickens do, They're super hardy birds and don't need much for winter. No extra bedding, Maybe a little grain during the winter, But not much else.
