Geese

Chinese geese are known for their long, elegant necks and upright posture.

They are one of the most talkative goose breeds and are known for being very vocal.

The breed comes in two colors: white and brown.

Chinese geese have a noticeable knob at the base of the bill that becomes more prominent with age.

They are often more active and alert than heavier goose breeds.

Chinese geese are excellent “watch animals” because they quickly sound off when something seems unusual.

They are good foragers and enjoy grazing on grass and weeds.

Chinese geese are often kept both for beauty and for practical farm use.

They tend to be lighter and more slender than many other domestic geese.

Their graceful look makes them a favorite for farm displays and ornamental flocks.

Chinese geese can be very personable and may learn to recognize their people.

They are descended from the wild swan goose, which gives them their distinctive shape.
