The Greylag Goose, a native of northern and central Eurasia, has been domesticated and raised for meat for over 1,000 years. Domestic geese are bred to be big and provide a lot of meat, hence they are very bulky. Their necks are thick, their bodies have extreme bellies. Their bills tend to be thickened at the base behind the nostrils.Domestic geese can be any color between completely gray (wild type) to completely white, but they are always big and blocky with a different bill shape.
