I want to get goslings next year but don't know where to start!

Hey everyone, I was curious what you feed your geese in the winter? I read lisa steele's article on it but feeding them strictly timothy or orchard hay and whole grains sounds like it can get a bit pricey and hard to find...Do yall just do goose feed?
Thank you so much!

geese must

My duck did that....She loved "vibrating" and chewing with her bill on everything. She was so funny!
I guess it's kinda like dogs, they explore with their mouths
Do geese need a run like chickens?
Just wondering, if you want to leave to go on a vacation, how do you take care of them? Do you have someone look after them? I want to keep geese, but I also want the ability to leave a few times a year to go camping or whatever. With my chickens, we have family come and give them food and water and let them out while we're away, but it would definitely be too much for them to take care of additional animals.

geese must have a safe run
