These birds average between 10 and 12 pounds and are good as guards, as they will agressively call for help if a wild animal comes near the barnyard. They are called "Weeder Geese" since they are so good at going around and eating up weeds.
The Chinese Goose has been raised in farms for hundreds of years.
