Consider White Chinese Geese for smaller roasters

Solution

Use White Chinese geese if a smaller, faster-maturing meat bird is desired.

Explanation

While primarily known as layers, Chinese geese mature relatively quickly. Although lighter than heavy breeds (10-12 lbs), they can provide smaller roasting birds sooner than the giant breeds. Their white feathers also make for clean processing.

Notes

Significantly less meat yield per bird compared to heavy breeds.
