I need help choosing a species "newbie here"

[Northeastdude]

I would like to raise waterfowl. However I am torn between ducks and geese. What are your recommendations? I would like to know what you guys think is more economical, and a better forager year round.

I am thinking of Pilgrim geese or Welsh Harlequin ducks. But I would like to raise only one of these, as to avoid problems. I know both are good for meat, eggs, calm, etc. But what is cheaper or better to raise, geese or ducks?

Thank you

Why choose? You know you'll end up with both in the end anyway, get 'em now and get it over with. I didn't even want ducks and now I've not only got ducks but geese and more in the incubator. They're all so cool and they grow exponentially every day.

can you pen them together?
