FAQs

Are geese considered poultry?

Yes, geese are considered poultry as they are domesticated birds raised for food or utility, similar to chickens, turkeys, and ducks.

Why do farmers keep geese?

Farmers keep geese primarily for their meat, eggs, and down feathers, and they are also valued for sustainable pasture grazing and as guard animals to protect other livestock.

Are geese easier or more sustainable to keep compared to chickens?

Geese can be more sustainable to keep than chickens because they rely heavily on pasture for nutrition, reducing feed costs, though they require pasture space and can be noisier.

What birds are not considered poultry?

Birds not considered poultry include wild game birds, cage birds such as songbirds and parrots, and exotic birds that are not domesticated or raised for meat or eggs.
