Lawn mowers with opinions — loyal, loud and long-lived.
Quick answer: Toulouse is a variety of geese. Everything on this page is geese-level guidance — we do not invent variety-specific numbers.
The care below is geese-level guidance from our species hub, sourced to Merck Veterinary Manual — Poultry and RSPCA — Goose advice. It applies to Toulouse exactly as it applies to every other geese variety. We do not publish variety-specific temperament, lifespan or weight numbers that we cannot source.
Grass is the diet — feed is the supplement
A healthy goose eats mostly grass: spring through fall, good pasture can cover 80–90% of intake for adults, with a handful of waterfowl or all-flock pellet as a balancer, and oyster shell for laying geese. In winter, hay and pellets carry them. Goslings need starter feed with extra niacin (like ducklings). Never keep geese on bare dirt and bagged feed alone — they get fat and bored, and boredom makes them louder.
Space, water and fencing
Plan on roughly 100 m² (about 1,000 sq ft) of grass per goose if you want the lawn to survive; less space means more purchased feed and faster mud. Water deep enough to dunk the head — a trough or small pond — keeps eyes and nostrils clean; they do not need a full pond to thrive. Fencing is about safety and neighbors: a 1 m fence usually holds a goose, but predator-proof night housing matters as much as for ducks, and breeding-season ganders need routes for people to walk away from the nest.
