It takes a little time. It took a few weeks before the flock would accept the minions. I would divided their pen in half so that they can see each other and keep peepers from picking on the new goose. They will eventually become best buddies.

My gander Frankie was a handful a couple of years ago. We picked him up and held him pretty much like you described. Now when he starts to get a little testy all i have to do is say Frankie, would you like a hug? He then turns around and walks away with his beak in the air.

Here are two of my ganders. Frankie and Johnnie. They went outside today. It was only 5 degrees F but it was sunny. It has been an improvement from the bitter cold last week. We should get some thawing later this week.

Eggbert has a sibling. Mom is still sitting on her nest so there might be another. Dad took his babies out for a tour of the shed today while mom stayed on the nest.
