FARMS: Goose as a bird of farms How to raise them.
THE GOOSE
Today's theme is the goose as a farm bird, and to begin with I am going to comment a little on the behavior and characteristics of the goose. This bird the goose is recognized as a faithful bird and very companion was very respected in Egypt 4000 years ago for being a special bird and very companion. All types of geese are usually migratory and can fly a speed of 100km / h, they are my companions with themselves if any one is exhausted or sick they usually stay with her until she is better to follow her flight. They are aquatic birds and they are very faithful to the person who breeds them, also helps if they see them in trouble or they know how to stay with their owner always, they usually compare it with a dog since they have a good nose and take care of their owner. unknown people, they are extraordinary birds many raise them to have them as pets and others for farms, for farms it is easy to raise them because it is a very strong bird its plumage are abundant and strong that it is difficult to get sick so they can be raised in the open air for a whole year and not get sick so easily, when lacria in this way is for farms that is to sell their meat, eggs and liver.
But in truth it is like having a pet, they usually return to their nest in which they were raised, so they have gone or lost for months or years they have to go back to the same place before they never forget things, they can also put 50 eggs for a year. When the goose is 2 to 3 years old, they usually look for a mate and begin to reproduce and vote for 5 eggs and hatch them for a month, and in the care of the eggs, the male takes care of the eggs with the female and when they are born it also accompanies in the breeding of the breeding and protects the female a lot. They are extraordinary birds and very good for breeding as a pet and for farms.
USED TECHNIQUES FOR THE CRIANZAS.
For the care of the eggs
In this case for the care of the eggs it must be taken into account where the female must lay the eggs, the nests and sheds of them must be galvanized or wood, which is a hard place is the most recommended and safe for eggs of the gansas.
It is also important and necessary for geese to have a lagoon either artificial or natural, but it is very necessary because they need to have a good grooming especially at the time of reproduction, since this is the only place where geese can mate. And these birds are similar to chickens that only a geese for 3 or 4 gansas, thus maintain greater egg fetility.
For the incubation of the eggs the most advisable is the artificial incubators, since the gansas are not usually good incubators because it is customary to abandon some or all the eggs, so the solution is to look for a mother who can incubate the eggs as chickens or legs. The eggs are broken after 1 month and 80% of the geese usually live.

Care of the chicks
For the offspring of the geese, that is to say the chicks, it is necessary to take into account many practices or techniques used to have good results, in the breeding of geese. Even though the goose is a strong animal to get sick, you need a lot of care and attention from the young until they have their first plumage since this is what makes them strong when they have their first plumage. For this reason it is important to abide by these techniques of care, starting with putting the chicks in a barn where we give all the maintenance required as well as sanitized, sand, illuminated and very well protected from rains and predators. So it is necessary to have a soil with a good thick layer of wood chips to keep it dry and be well protected from any disease since being chicks are very sensitive and should be more careful until they have their first plumage.
And for feeding pigeons should be well accommodated as the water sprue must be narrow and wired so they do not want to put in them and codereso deen be the linear ones that are flush with the ground. Also all this establishment of the sheds of farms to breed geese pigeons should be far from tourist areas or where they are going to be urbanized. To avoid animal diseases with humans.

HOW TO FEED THE GEESE
When we raise geese on farms, it requires necessary care, but when they grow they are very rustic birds that are difficult to get sick, and also when it comes to feeding, it is easiest, so there is no complication. Geese tend to feed on their own, and what they ate is just that, other things like graminia, gramon, ray gras. These birds can usually consume 1kg of grass per day, but it is not the only thing that these birds like to eat, they also consume the weeds of the fields, they must have a recommended fattening and up to a limit, such as 200 to 250g . And the geese should only consume fresh water at about 36 to 48 hours is necessary to eliminate the food that comes inside the egg
