Exhibition Dewlap Toulouse

I personally love this breed, I was lucky enough to find 2 pairs, 1 buff and 1 gray. As well as extremely lucky to hatch 3 goslings from shipped eggs. These birds are the definition of gentle giants!

My Exhibition Dewlap Toulouse Geese are the most prized members of my flock. I absolutely adore everything about them! They make wonderful pets and are also great flock guardians in that they let me know if there's a problem outside. I have found the Exhibition Dewlap Toulouse to be quite difficult to incubate and/or hatch successfully and would highly recommend gaining experience with a breed which doesn't present as many problems before trying these. I have found my geese to be gentle at all times of the year, including the breeding season. Although the ganders can get a bit testy during breeding season, I haven't witnessed the viciousness that I've seen in some other goose breeds at this time of year. I consider the Exhibition Dewlap Toulouse to be the "gentle giants" of the goose kingdom. They all come running every time I open the door to go outside and are always happy to see me! These geese are extremely large and can develop leg problems if not fed the proper diet. I highly recommend Mazuri waterfowl brand feed for any and all types of waterfowl but especially the Dewlap Toulouse. As with any animal...FRESH and CLEAN drinking/bathing water should be available at ALL times. Exhibition Dewlap Toulouse geese are the only breed of geese that I raise. I have found my geese to get along well with all of the other members of my flock...including the chickens, call ducks, pheasants, and yes, even the cats! All in all, the Exhibition Dewlap Toulouse is a wonderful breed and my hope is that my small contribution will make a difference toward preserving this amazing and beautiful bird.

A stunning and striking breed of geese which always draws admiration for its looks and size. We have established UK show lines and our stock is descended from International show lines including Holderread.

Our favourite breed and we have established and developed our theories of incubation based on direct research with this breed. Please PM for availability.

2013 has seen us establish our own line of exhibition Buffs which have been line bred from Champion foundation birds.

A breed which we highly recommend.

I have 19 dewlap toulouse geese (7 buff/12 grey). They are wonderful pets and make excellent front yard lawn ornaments. They are sweet and sociable... and always act super happy to see me. It is a shame that they are so rare and difficult to find for purchase. I hope to help change that in 2013.

We have 13 Dewlap Toulouse in both Gray and Buff. Out of those 13 we have selected 9 to definitely be breeding stock for 2013. None of our breeding stock selected has any faults or defects be it SOP or genetic. We will continue to grow out and cull from the breeding flock those who dont meet the written standard. We cull any genetically weak hatchlings as to never pass along weak stock to customers.


Our farm is just one of so many raising these gentle giant geese, please feel free to email us directly if you have questions concerning these geese, their needs, or buying any wether it be from us or another reputable breeder who is breeding to the standard for proper balance and free of genetic faults and defects.

I bought two exhibition buff toulouse from winning lines. I am in love. They are beautiful and follow me around when outside. Just love them!

I love these geese so much. I have a trio (gray split buff gander and two buff geese). They don't have a problem with any of my other birds. I can get quite close without them running away. Great Breed!

This is on my to get list... i see toulouse advertised in many places but i want the Dewlap Toulouse version. Couldn't find any eggs last year to buy. Hoping to get some this year
