Many species of coccidia have been found present in geese, both farmed and wild. It is a more severe problem in goslings, from between 3 - 12 weeks of age, in which mortality will occur frequently. Coccidia is frequently introduced into domestic flocks by migrating wild geese, which are resistant to the disease.
