  • Goose Suppliers - South Wales?

    Anyone know of someone (preferably in S.Wales) that supply o/r geese for xmas?

    I haven't heard from Bramble Poultry for ages, and their site doesn't work anymore, so thought I'd see if anyone knew of any suppliers (and, places that look after their flock..)

    TIA!

    Or Nicos, if you fancy delivering me one you're welcome to stay for xmas dinner

    I am just on the Herefordshire Worcestershire borders, and I currently have a couple of well grown young geese ready for someone to fatten on for Christmas. They eat mostly grass with a bit of extra wheat to help put the weight on. I have a phone number of someone who would "do the deed" if you wanted - though often local gamekeepers will oblige for a drink or two.

    Geese need minimal shelter, sufficient water to dip their heads in so their eyes keep clear, and nightime protection from predators.

      Thanks. I've removed a bit of your post as it's against the T&C of the forum (though, I know I was asking for info) - but just to keep the pitch forks of admin at bay

      I don't have the space for geese, unfortunately - otherwise I'd have some (for this very purpose!)

      The next time we move - it's going to have enough space for such things as geese, et al

                Coincidentally , we've just 'done' our 5 geese today.
                2 hrs to pluck and prepare each bird!
