Geese Thrive on Pasture and Seasonal Feeding
Geese are best raised on good grass ranges as they graze extensively. Goslings should receive a mash of two parts shorts to one part cornmeal for three weeks, then switch to equal parts with 5 percent beef scrap and grit. A fattening ration uses one part shorts to two parts cornmeal with 5 percent beef scrap, fed in the morning and corn at night.
