I was recently given a sweet duck and goose pair. They are buds, and hang out together. Maybe because they are in an entirely new environment, but, also, they seem the get along well. The lady who gave them to me, said that they were "Drop-Off rescue birds". In that someone had dropped them off at her place. She thinks they are this year's TSC or Atwood's special, and just got too big for their original owner, who likely just dropped them off at her livestock rescue farm.
The goose is all white, very sweet and mostly docile. But, will get aggressive, if it thinks it can. It bit my friend's daughter on her belly, and left a small welt. No harm, no foul. She's only four, and didn't cry, so it couldnt have been too bad, she simply came back to us, and said, "That goose is WILD!"
Anyway, I don't know what to look for, on a goose (or duck, for that matter) to determine gender. Can anyone tell me what I should look for?
