Breed Tips

Check if buying this breed that the stock has bright almost ‘Schapparelli’ pink legs and beak . . . the beak colour gradually becomes pinker in the gosling and can often be born with a mucky pinkish orange bill which changes as they fledge. Many of the buff coloured goslings and geese sold are Not Brecon Buff Geese . . . if in doubt ask to see the parent stock. They do not have a keel.
