One hundred and twenty birds were used to investigate the effect of raising the Egyptian geese (four week old) in open houses with or without swimming pond on growth performance, blood parameters, carcass traits and meat quality. This study included four groups of geese each of 30 birds (10 per replicates each), both groups were raised under almost similar housing conditions. Birds of the first and second groups (C and T1) were raised indoor system with or without swimming pond. While, birds of the third and fourth groups (T2 and T3) were raised in outdoor system with or without swimming pond. The results showed local geese group raised in outdoor system with pond had better values for all criteria under study than geese group raised indoor system with or without pond and outdoor system without pond. Wet and dry housing system significantly affected body weight, daily weight gain, feed conversion, abdominal fat, mortality rate and most meat quality. However, it had insignificant effects in most of blood parameters. In addition, birds reared under wet housing system had significantly (P≤0.05) effect on body temperature as compared to the other groups. No significant differences (P≤0.05) were found between groups in dressed carcass, leg problems, confirmation and plumage conditions. Finally, the economical efficiency of the birds reared under wet housing system was better than the dry housing system groups. It could be concluded the importance of raising local geese during growing period in open house (outdoor system) with pond, that was more adequate performance, better appearance and meat quality, healthy and more welfare than raising indoor system with or without pond.
