Quote:
I raise Cotton Geese, or Cotton Patch Geese they're also called. I think they're great weeders, you just have to be careful to raise them on weeds as mentioned earlier. Also, you only feed them their feed in the evening so that they wake up hungry and wanting to eat the weeds that are around them. If you feed them in the morning then they aren't motivated to eat the rest of the day, even if you feed them less than normal. You can feed them a normal ration in the evening and they can eat until they're full, wake up the next morning and happily munch away on weeds.
