Hi,
I raise Sebastopols for breeding right now, and just LOVE them!
But a friend with more acreage than I have, and I, are thinking of raising geese for meat (for sale). Anyone on here specialize in that? Can you tell me how it has gone?
Reasons we are considering it:
1. Goose meat is AWESOME! I had to cull a half breed last year, so I cooked it. It had been pastured and supplemented with organic chicken layer feed. YUM! YUM! YUM!
2. Because geese are such good foragers, it seems to me that they would be more economical to raise, and bring more profit than chickens.
3. They seem also to be less work than chickens, and they SURE don't smell as bad!
Thanks in advance!!!
