White Sebastopol Geese

White is the classic Sebastopol and the only colour recognised in the American Poultry Association standard. A good white bird is clean white throughout with an orange bill and legs and blue eyes, which is one of the quickest ways to tell a purebred Sebastopol from a crossbred.

Availability. We are running white birds now. Numbers and ages change through the season, so tell us what you are after and we will say what is on the ground. Adults are on the geese page, with juveniles, goslings and hatching eggs alongside.

Because the show world was built around white, this is where the deepest selection for curl and body type has happened. If you are buying on feather quality rather than colour, whites are usually where you will find the best examples, simply because more people have been selecting for it for longer.

The blue eye is worth knowing about. It is characteristic of the breed and a useful check when you are looking at a bird advertised as a Sebastopol. Feather curl alone is not proof, since other breeds carry frizzle-type feathering.

White is also the plainest backdrop for judging structure, which cuts both ways. Faults in the curl are harder to see on a white bird in bright sun than on a grey, so look at one in flat light or from the side.
