When do geese lose their egg tooth? Telling gosling age?

Okay, so we just got new geese from this place.. She said they were only a couple days old. But, they don't have egg teeth, and my other geese who were about a week and a half old did. They're tall, but they're really skinny.. Just about the same size as the one we got right out of the incubator.

I just want to know how old my new ones are.. So, does it vary, or do they get rid of them about the same time universally?

Btw, I have no idea what breed they are. They're supposed to be toulouse, but they might be canadian or half canadian. Apparently, a canadian flocked invaded their field, so some of their toulouse are half toulouse, and apparently they even hatched out some full canadians this year.

I'll post pictures later, when I get home..
 
I would love to know the answer to this too... I brought my gosling home day before yesterday and she still had her egg tooth, but now it's fallen off.
Near as I can tell she's an African brown.
