Sep 17, 2023 · I have a three year old breeder pair of Giant Canada geese I'd like to sell. They laid five fertile eggs this year, but I let the hen sit and she lost them all when her nest flooded. They are too big and rough around my tiny ornamental ducks and I'd like to switch my focus to them, so I want to pass the geese on to someone else who would enjoy ...

Jun 29, 2018 · "The giant Canada goose is often mistaken for the Moffitt's Canada goose. However, giant geese have both a lower call and a larger bill to body size ratio. Another good identifier includes the black on the neck, which starts much farther up the neck than any other subspecies. The giant goose's white cheek patch is very large, reaching the lower ...

May 11, 2022 · The production Toulouse is the common gray barnyard goose; the giant, also called the dewlap, gains weight faster, puts on more fat, and matures to a much more massive size, especially when bred for shows. The dewlap consists of a fold of skin that hangs down below the bill and becomes more pronounced as the goose ages.

Jan 12, 2019 · LOL! Ok good to know! I just carefully got some of the grass off and set the eggs with X's and O's! I decided to use my Nurture Right 360 just because my experiences have been so good and all 13 BIG eggs just barely fit in there so if I'm fortunate enough to get all 13 to lockdown I'll separate them into 2 incubators or set them in the styrofoam incubator for lockdown.

I don't know much about this breed of goose, but have read and heard that Embden come in two sizes, regular and giant. Somebody...

Aug 14, 2013 · We have a small flock of geese. They are African Grey males and Toulouse females. We hatched and sold lots of geese this spring and then kept most of the last hatch. Our girls have started laying again (in the heat of the summer?) and I have to say, the eggs are remarkable!! We started out this...

Jun 10, 2022 · There are hatchery African geese and then there are Super African geese. The super Africans look like the original Chinese Lion Head Goose from way back. The hatchery Africans are at best only slightly more stout than a regular brown or white Chinese goose, they never get very heavy or develop the signature large dewlaps.

Feb 5, 2010 · cowgirl 71, let me tell you, (laughing), have you seen the GQF goose turner? I bought one, I have 5 breeds of geese, don't waste your time or money, you can make it yourself, it is a chicken egg turner with a piece of the screen like they use in the bottom of the hovabator, and they cut it the lenght of the egg cup holder, creased it on two sides and screwed it with 3 short …

Jan 3, 2010 · Yes, in my experience they are harder than some breeds. Due to the size of the geese. some are in excess of 35 lbs the eggs are larger than alot of geese and the shells are much thicker than the smaller breeds of geese we have raised.
