What is a good Gander to Goose ratio? I want good fertility but don't wanna stress my boy out either. I currently have 1 White chinese pair(male & female). I have 2 sexed WC gosling girls on order that are due in Friday and I just picked up 3 Brown Chinese that I am really hoping are females (or at least 2 females), I vent sexed these myself and have had decent luck with the method so far.
So, "worse" case scenario is 6 geese & 1 gander I am pretty Positive this is too many girls.
Would it be a good idea to get another Gander for the breeding season?(next year)
We have had trios before and a pair. the pair shared brooding duties and i worry about owen losing his mind trying to help all those girls during brooding season, lol. They have plenty of water for breeding and I know with ducks this ratio would be fine but i dunno about geese.
Thanks for any help, input & suggestions everyone!
