“…The mean values of the weight of eggs and egg components in the early stage from the young firstyear geese were lower (P B0.001) than those from the older geese of the third laying year, though the differences between the age groups in the full lay decreased ( Table 1). The weight of randomly collected eggs was typical for Lithuanian Vishtines geese and corresponded to the data of prior records (Juodka et al 2012). In the early lay, the eggs from young geese had lower yolk and higher albumen ratios, respectively, than those from older geese (P B0.01).…”

The aim of the study was to determine egg characteristics, and yolk fatty acid profile in the early and full lay by Lithuanian Vishtinės geese of different ages in the first and third laying years. The mean values of the weight of eggs in the early stage of laying were lower (PB0.001) from first-year geese in comparison with the older geese of the third year. In early lay, eggs from young geese had lower yolk and higher albumen ratios, respectively, than those from older geese (PB0.01); however, in full lay there were no differences between the geese from different age groups. The age of geese and the laying stage did not appear to affect the proportions of total saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids. The laying stage showed effects on the proportions of separate n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The yolk from all the geese in full lay had more than twice higher contents of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PB0.001), including increase of EPA (C20:5n-3), DHA (C22:6n-3) and DPA (C22:5n-3). The laying stage did not influence the atherogenic index and hypocholesterolemic/hypercholesterolemic ratio of yolk lipids. The age of geese appeared to affect fatty acid composition only in early lay.

“…Shank and feet colour: Shank and feet appeared orange in colour. This finding found to be in accordance to the observation of Juodka et al, (2012) in Lithuanian Vishtines geese breed and Hamadani and Khan (2016) in Kashmir Anz geese. Indigenous geese of West Bengal, Bangladesh geese and Kenyan Geese had shown yellow shank as reported by Banerjee (2013), Islam et al, (2016) and Macharia et al, (2017) respectively.…”

“…Similar finding was observed by Banerjee (2013) in indigenous geese of West Bengal; Islam et al, (2016) in indigenous geese of Bangladesh and Hamadani et al, (2020) in Kashmir Anz geese. Juodka et al, (2012) conducted a study on Lithuanian Vishtines geese breed and observed that they had white plumage. Buckland and Guy (2002) reported that there are white, white grey, light grey, grey, brown grey, brown, fawn, buff and blue coloured geese across the world.…”

“…Eye colour in Kashmir Anz geese was found to be either grey or brown (Hamadani and Khan 2016). However, Juodka et al, (2012) conducted a study on Lithuanian Vishtines geese breed and observed that the geese had blue eyes. Islam et al, (2016) observed dark brown and blue coloured eyes in indigenous geese of Bangladesh.…”
