	Domesticated goose - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Domesticated geese are descendants of wild geese now kept as poultry.
		The most generally recognized breeds of domestic geese are those to which the distinctive names of Emden and Toulouse are applied; but a singular breed, said to have come from Sevastopol, was introduced into western Europe about the year 1856.
		There are Mother Goose tales, such as a farmwife might have told; there is the proverbial goose that laid the golden eggs, warning about the perils of greed.

	Greylag Goose - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Greylag Goose, Anser anser, is a bird with a wide range in the Old World, apparently breeding where suitable localities are to be found in many European countries, although it no longer breeds in southwestern Europe.
		Thus the Greylag Goose is the grey goose, which in England when the name was given, was not strongly migratory but lagged behind the other wild goose species when they left for their northern breeding quarters.
		Within science, the greylag goose is most notable as being the bird with which the ethologist Konrad Lorenz first did his major studying into the behavioural phenomenon of imprinting.

	Confusing Domestic Geese
		These domestic greylag geese were present in the marina at Myers Pt., Lansing, NY on 24 Feb 2001, the same day a real Greater White-fronted Goose was off the south shore (go here to see that bird).
		Domestic geese can be any color between completely gray (wild type) to completely white, but they are always big and blocky with a different bill shape.
		Its Canada Goose heritage is very apparent from the dark neck, facial pattern, and overall body pattern, but the white behind the bill and the long red bill itself point to a domestic goose parent.

	Our Humble Helpers - The Domestic Goose
		The floor of the cell is made of slats far enough apart for the dung to fall through; the front wall is pierced with an opening for the passage of the head, and beneath this opening is a trough always full of water, in which are placed a few pieces of charcoal as a disinfectant.
		The goose is plucked, but not entirely, you understand, beneath the stomach, on the neck, and on the under side of the wings; it is only when dead that it is plucked completely.
		The goose has the same fault as the duck: she is not a very assiduous brooder.

		Goose (plural geese) is the general English name for a considerable number of birds, belonging to the family Anatidae.
		In the West, farmyard geese are descended from the greylag, but in Asia the swan goose has been farmed for at least as long.
		Goose in its origins is one of the oldest words of the Indo-European languages, the modern names deriving from the proto-Indo-European root, ghans, hence Sanskrit hamsa (feminine hamsii), Latin anser, Greek khén etc.

	The Mediadrome - Food - Christmas Goose
		However, goose on the Christmas table was savored not only by the English, but all the countries of continental Europe during the 19th century.
		Domestically raised fresh and frozen geese are available in most supermarkets this time of year.
		The flavor in a domestic goose is largely due to the volume of fat that lies just under the breast skin.

	Cooking your goose
		Goose was once cheaper than the meatier turkey, but turkeys are more profitably raised and the gobbler has long since replaced goose on most holiday dinner tables throughout Europe as well as in this country.
		Regardless, a goose has a huge cavity and we cannot resist filling it with a mixture of rice, pine nuts and vegetables; because we carefully pull off excess fat and roast the bird on a rack, we've never found our stuffing to be too fatty.
		Our first thought was that the wild goose wouldn't serve as many people as a domestic goose, but when we cooked equal weights of both, the wild goose actually yielded more meat, while we poured off more fat from the roasting pan under the domestic bird.

	Domestic Geese: medium weight breeds recognised by the British Waterfowl Association Standards
		Medium geese are mostly between 16-20lbs in the gander and 14-18 lbs in the goose.
		This is the same pattern as the Toulouse, for the European domestic geese all derive from the same basic stock—the greylag.
		It was recognized that, in farmyard geese, the gander was often white and the goose grey or grey and white.

		After seeing the goose drink fresh water out of a cup that a woman was holding in front of her, Julie and I decided that we could probably lure her close enough to catch.
		When we arrived, the goose was standing on the beach eating bread that had been tossed to her by a family having a picnic.
		So now the goose has returned from the wild, and is living a life to which she is far better suited.

	Duck and Goose
		The domestic goose, bred in ancient Egypt, China and India, arrived from a different direction -- across the Atlantic from Europe, where they're immensely popular.
		Because all the meat on a duck or goose is dark, it has a stronger flavor than chicken breast meat--and even chicken leg meat.
		If fresh duck or goose has reached 160° F throughout, even though it may still be pink in the center, it should be safe.

		Wild goose: Of course, that is not the case for avid waterfowl hunters such as Kevin Jackson of Murray.
		Before seasoning and roasting a goose, sous chef Jerry Ridens trims most of the loose fat that hangs around the cavity openings and then pricks the skin all over with a fork, being careful not to pierce through to the breast meat.

		It was Ithaca newcomer Jeff's persistence in looking through the geese that we regulars ignored, and his persistence in coming back to this same odd goose that got me to look at it and realize it was a "real" White-fronted Goose.

		As the goose has proved so little flexible in its organisation under long-continued domestication, the amount of variation which it has undergone may be worth giving.
		Although the domestic goose certainly differs somewhat from any known wild species, yet the amount of variation which it has undergone, as compared with that of most domesticated animals, is singularly small.
		The goose is valued for its size and flavour, for the whiteness of its feathers which adds to their value, and for its prolificness and tameness.

		According to J. Landt in the early 1800s, domestic ducks were kept on the Faroe Islands ”only in Tórshavn, and in the countryside only by priests and a few farmers”.
		In 1990, the Faroese Goose was described as a separate goose breed in the Scandinavian Poultry Standard, which states that it descends from a ”very old Faroese domestic goose, which has not gone through any breed development in the Faroes or anywhere else.” In the journal ”Geflügel Börse” nr.
		In the Scandinavian Poultry Standard, the Faroese Goose is described as follows: ”A not too big goose, and definitely not of a solid stature; but on the other hand, it must not be too fine-bodied and delicate.

	BirdForum - Goose has got me stumped
		The neck coloration and the loong straight bill show that the domestic goose was probably a domestic swan goose (chinese goose).
		The other parent of this goose must have been a canada goose, due to the dark brownish coloration and the fl coloration on the neck.
		They are in fact domestic hybrids Chinese x Barnyard geese, as the head and neck pattern and the slightly swollen base of the bill show.

	BirdForum - Itinerant Snow Goose
		I suppose it could be possible that you had a Snow Goose in with a flock of the smaller Canada Geese, such as "Richardson's" or "Cackling" (subspecies of Canada Goose).
		The thing is, this bird seemed to have that fl smile of the snow goose-- but I have to admit that, on second thought, it is just possible that this fl smile trim was possibly that of an immature tundra or mute.
		I suppose it would be shocking if a domestic escape was a strong enough flyer to stay with the Canada geese, but then again there are bunches of the CG that just flap around here all year.

		Wild geese have so much less fat than their domestic brethren that, as far as the kitchen is concerned, the two birds should be considered different species altogether—so much so that they require opposite roasting methods.
