Fattening The Geese But Not The Chickens.


Recommended Posts

I have a few geese I'm fattening up for Christmas, anyone got any suggestions on how to fatten them up with out fattening up the hens etc they are with? I was thinking mixed corn, in a bucket of water so the geese can dunk there heads to get it but the chickens wont, any fatteners pellets etc would just turn to mush, guess the corn wouldn't?

I had my geese on soaked growers pellets mixed corn , and milky mash potatoes , found it in an old garden farming book , they love the mash put loads of milk in ( my mate works at a dairy so it was free , and I just got a big bag ov spuds for a £5 ) I put them in a small pen to so they did not walk the weight off , hope this helps
