The feed formula for laying geese is 60%-70% grains, 10%-15% bran and rice bran, 10%-15% cakes, 4-5% mineral feed, and 10%-15% filler (grass meal). As for the feeding amount, apart from free-choice green feed, large goose breeds are fed 150-180 grams per goose per feeding, and small goose breeds 100-130 grams, fed

The feed formula for laying geese is 60%-70% grains, 10%-15% bran and rice bran, 10%-15% cakes, 4-5% mineral feed, and 10%-15% filler (grass meal). As for the feeding amount, apart from free-choice green feed, large goose breeds are fed 150-180 grams per goose per feeding, and small goose breeds 100-130 grams, fed 3 times a day. Feeding should be done at fixed times and in fixed amounts, with coarse feed first and fine feed after. In the morning, herd them out to graze until 10 o'clock, then bring them back to the shed to feed; after feeding, let them rest in a shady spot by the water and give them green feed; feed once at 2 p.m., herd them out to graze after 3 o'clock, and feed the 3rd time after they return to the shed at dusk.

Points to note when preparing feed for laying geese

1. The feed for laying geese should be formulated according to the feeding standards for the developmental stage the geese are in, so as not only to meet the nutritional needs for normal growth of the laying geese, but also to avoid wasting feed.

2. When formulating the feed formula for laying geese, local feed resources should be fully utilized, and while meeting the growth needs of the laying geese, the feeding cost should be reduced as much as possible to achieve greater feeding benefits.

3. When formulating the feed formula for laying geese, a variety of raw materials should be selected for mixing as much as possible, making full use of the nutritional complementary effect among the raw materials. In addition, the raw materials should be selected for good palatability to meet the nutritional needs of the laying geese.

4. When formulating feed for laying geese, although some raw materials such as dried grass meal and blood meal have relatively high protein content, they are not easy to digest, so their amount in the feed should be controlled. In addition, the quality of the selected feed raw materials should be good, and spoiled feed raw materials must not be used.
