Feeding geese for the table
From hatching to 3-4 weeks of age goslings should be fed on Goose/Duck Starter Crumbs to get them off to a good start. Goslings will instinctively want to graze and grass should be made available to them, this can be provided in the form of a section of turf if the goslings are kept confined.
At 3-4 weeks of age Goose/Duck Grower/Finisher Pellets can be gradually introduced and these can be fed until finishing. The amount that individual birds need will be very dependent upon the quality and quantity of grass available, where there is plenty of grazing only small amounts of additional feed may be required.
Greens and leafy vegetables can also be fed as can a little wheat, but this should be provided as a treat only and not in place of a nutritionally balanced pellet.
