Dave Holderread's Book of Geese is one of the classics of waterfowl management. We found this book when we first started raising geese and it was essential to our success. Today we breed, exhibit and sell Champion Embden Geese. We still turn to this book on a regular basis. Excellent information on basic management, breeding, incubation, rearing goslings and keeping everyone healthy.

I turned to this book frequently in order to learn about goslings -- especially problems. This book has it all. Everything you want to know about geese is included. Excellent photographs enchance the book. Lots of information for first-time goose handlers! The author is available by phone if there is any additional information you need.

I am a duck and goose farmer. I turn to this book all the time for information. It is easy to read with great illustrations. It also gives great advice to help you start out raising geese.

Easy to read book with good illustrations and diagrams takes you from the egg through incubation, gosling stage, feeding, housing,mating, health and physical problems. It covers all breeeds of geese with descriptions of the traits unique to each breed. An excelent book - this really is the COMPLETE guide to raising the home flock

not that its a bad book - its not but i was excited about this book,i had heard these were the go to guys of geese all about geese just geese and seemed to me wasnt anything i hadnt read in other books about ducks and geese. esp considering the hefty price tag.
