AV Bird Hatchery
Brown Chinese Geese (Pre Orders for March Shipping 2026)

Sold Out Until March 2026
Brown Chinese Geese are elegant, active, and highly productive waterfowl known for their slender build, graceful neck, and strong foraging abilities. For decades, many hatcheries mistakenly grouped Brown Africans and Brown Chinese together because their color patterns are so similar. However, they are completely separate breeds, each with its own characteristics.
A simple way to spot the difference:
-
Toulouse Goslings: Have a “U” shape at the top of the bill.
-
African & Chinese Goslings: Have an arched bill shape.
Brown Chinese Geese are excellent for small farms and homesteads, offering exceptional alertness, good egg production, and strong natural grazing behavior.
