Try a great idea from a bycer....paint various food colouring around their vents and see which coloured egg matches which coloured vent. It works.

And the eggs are so pretty too.

The problem with that may be how long she could still produce mixed-breed offspring AFTER being separated.

I'm not sure how it is with geese. But I've proven the "theory" with chickens that they can still lay eggs from a particular male for up to three weeks. I have a bantam cochin hen that was moved completely out of the pen where the roos are and placed with 2-month-old babies. She laid phoenix-mix eggs for a full 3 weeks after being moved - then her eggs went infertile (there is a cockerel in the baby mix, but he was/is too young). I'm actually incubating EVERY egg she lays, in hopes that they will soon be fertile again. Once they are, I will know the young cockerel has reached sexual maturity. And he's a FRIZZLE cochin, so I really want his babies! But so far, three months with no fertility.

I have learned to be quicker than mine. When he gets close enough, I turn around and grab him and smother him with hugs. Now he thinks twice.

Today was going in to put feed in the bowls in the pens got to the last one and Grant came over and but my right thigh! Nasty little brat.. I can not out run him because I walk with a cane. But I think he went in and count the eggs in the nest because I raided the nest earlier and got 15 eggs from all the pens. So I guess I deserved then nip he did....

I would get after him with your cane! I found goosing them in the tail really gets them good! I think that is what they would do to each other.
