A Goose is a domesticated, medium-sized waterfowl, known for its large eggs and belligerent nature. Like all farm animals geese cannot be found in the wild, and must be purchased from traders.

Summary[edit]

Geese are pen animals. Once tamed, pen animals cannot and do not need to be trained any further. But if left outside of a pen or caravan hitching spot, pen animals will eventually roam outside your colony. Making a caravan is not required to tie animals to a caravan hitching spot.

A female goose produces 1 eggs every 2 days. Geese can lay both unfertilized and fertilized eggs, depending on if it has mated with a male goose.

Analysis[edit]

Eggs[edit]

An adult goose consumes 0.45 nutrition per day, and produces 0.25 nutrition of eggs each day, resulting in a nutrition efficiency of 55.8% when unfertilized eggs are eaten.

When eating eggs raw, geese are inferior to chickens. Chickens produce 2 half-size chicken eggs for 1 goose egg. As 2 hens consume less food than 1 goose, chickens are a better egg-layer. When eggs are allowed to hatch and are slaughtered as babies, chickens become even better for meat.

Note that geese produce birdskin if slaughtered as goslings, but chickens don't produce any leather.

Meat[edit]

When slaughtered, a goose yields 17 bird meat as a gosling; 42 as a juvenile; or 84 as an adult.

By slaughtering the geese rather than eating the unhatched fertilized egg, more nutrition is gained (0.85 rather than 0.5). When new-born goslings are slaughtered, an always-fertilized female goose produces 0.43 nutrition per day, resulting in a nutrition efficiency of 94.9% for the female goose alone. A 4:1 female:male ratio reaches an optimal fertilization rate. With this ratio of geese, you reach a nutrition efficiency of 75.9%.

A goose takes 7.2 days to become a juvenile, and a total of 12 days to reach adulthood. As a gosling grows into adulthood it will consume 2.9 nutrition in total, and will yield 3.35 more nutrition when slaughtered than it would as a baby. When slaughtered as adults, geese have a true nutrition efficiency of 104.4% (with a 4:1 female:male ratio).

Leather[edit]

In addition to meat, a goose yields 6 leather as a gosling; 18 as a juvenile; or 26 as an adult.

Birdskin isn't a particularly great leather, but it can be sold for some cash if you happen to be using geese in your colony.

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Guard:
Attack:
Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.

↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.

 A '''Goose''' is a domesticated, medium-sized waterfowl, known for its large eggs and belligerent nature. Like all farm animals geese cannot be found in the wild, and must be purchased from traders.
-==Livestock==
+== Summary ==
-A goose takes 18 days to become a juvenile, and a total of 18 days to reach adulthood.
+{{Pen Animal Note|Geese}}
-Geese will regularly lay eggs if female, even if unfertilized, unlike other egg-laying livestock. Each egg has enough nutrition to replace the meat component in a fine meal. If you also have a male goose, he may fertilize eggs before a female goose lays them. These eggs will then hatch into a gosling, so long as it is left alone and does not experience extreme temperatures (Less than 0C, greater than 50C). Unfertilized eggs will never hatch. There is no difference between a fertilized and an unfertilized egg for the purpose of cooking.
+A female goose produces {{P|Eggs Per Clutch Average}} eggs every {{P|Egg Laying Interval}} days. Geese can lay both [[Chicken egg (unfert.)|unfertilized]] and [[Chicken egg (fert.)|fertilized]] eggs, depending on if it has mated with a male goose.
-==Training==
+== Analysis ==
+=== Eggs ===
+An adult goose consumes {{P|Real Hunger Rate}} nutrition per day, and produces {{#vardefineecho:egg_nutr_per_day|{{#expr:{{P|Eggs Per Clutch Average}}/{{P|Egg Laying Interval}}*{{Q|Goose egg (unfert.)|Nutrition}}}}}} nutrition of eggs each day, resulting in a nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{#var:egg_nutr_per_day}}/({{P|Base Hunger Rate}}*1.6) round 3}} when unfertilized eggs are eaten.
+When eating eggs raw, geese are inferior to [[chicken]]s. Chickens produce 2 half-size chicken eggs for 1 goose egg. As 2 hens consume less food than 1 goose, chickens are a better egg-layer. When eggs are allowed to hatch and are slaughtered as babies, chickens become even better for meat.
+Note that geese produce [[birdskin]] if slaughtered as goslings, but chickens don't produce any leather.
+=== Meat ===
+When slaughtered, a goose yields {{#vardefineecho:baby_meat|{{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.1*140}}}}}} bird meat as a gosling; {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.5*140}}}} as a juvenile; or {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*140}}}} as an adult.
+By slaughtering the geese rather than eating the unhatched [[Goose egg (fert.)|fertilized egg]], more nutrition is gained ({{#expr:{{#var:baby_meat}}*0.05 round 2}} rather than {{Q|Goose egg (fert.)|Nutrition}}). When new-born goslings are slaughtered, an always-fertilized female goose produces {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|Baby}} round 2}} nutrition per day, resulting in a nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|Baby}}/({{P|Base Hunger Rate}}*1.6) round 3}} for the female goose alone. A {{#vardefineecho:femaleratio|{{#expr: 2/3*24*{{P|Egg Laying Interval}}/{{P|Mate Mtb Hours}}}}}}:1 female:male ratio reaches an optimal [[Animals#Mating|fertilization rate]]. With this ratio of geese, you reach a nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|Baby|{{#var:femaleratio}}|1 round 2}}/{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|Baby|{{#var:femaleratio}}|1}} round 3}}.
+A goose takes {{#expr:{{P|Juvenile Age}}*60 round 1}} days to become a juvenile, and a total of {{#expr:{{P|Maturity Age}}*60 round 1}} days to reach adulthood. As a gosling grows into adulthood it will consume {{#expr:{{Consumption Upto Adulthood}} round 2}} nutrition in total, and will yield {{#expr:0.05*({{P|Meat Yield}} - {{#var:baby_meat}})}} more nutrition when slaughtered than it would as a baby. When slaughtered as adults, geese have a true nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|Adult|{{#var:femaleratio}}|1 round 2}}/{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|Adult|{{#var:femaleratio}}|1}} round 3}} (with a 4:1 female:male ratio).
+=== Leather ===
+In addition to meat, a goose yields {{#vardefineecho:baby_leather|{{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.1*36}}}}}} leather as a gosling; {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.5*36}}}} as a juvenile; or {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*36}}}} as an adult.
+[[Birdskin]] isn't a particularly great leather, but it can be sold for some cash if you happen to be using geese in your colony.
