Toulouse Goose - Hatchery Stock
*3 The standard Toulouse is a large, dewlapped bird with
elongated feathers, loose skin, and a keel. The large Toulouse is a unique
color of gray, is a good layer, and is raised for its fatty liver which
is used to make fois gras. This is the bird of particular conservation
interest. There is also a smaller Toulouse goose which is a longer
legged, tightly feathered, keel-less goose with no dewlap (hatchery
toulouse- see Gabby above). It is a productive agricultural meat
bird. It is more numerous than the large dewlapped Toulouse, but still
requires genetic conservation. Exhibition Toulouse have exaggerated dewlaps.
Data contain all three populations.
