Chinese Goose The Chinese goose originates from China and is related to the African goose.

They are the smallest of the common domestic geese and are often referred to as "Swan Geese" because of their carriage and grace. Many people prefer using the Chinese for weeding purposes because of their small size and active nature. Though they eat the same grasses and weeds as other breeds, there is less potential damage to the crops because they are more agile and careful where they step. Chinese have been known to lay large quantities of eggs - over 100 in a year!

A distinguising characteristic of Chinese is the knob on top of their head - which is typically larger in males. Our White Chinese are a couple of pounds heavier than our Brown Chinese.
