Czech Geese are very short and stocky and one of the lightest geese at only 4.5 to 5.5 Kg. They are a lively goose and keep active and alert. These Geese were developed in Germany but the original birds came from Bohemia, an area occupying the western two-thirds of the former Czechoslovakia, now called the Czech Republic.

The Czech Goose was standardised in 2008 in the UK. They are called Tschechische Gänse in Germany.
