I have a 3 month old cotton Patch female goose that is very aggressive towards my other livestock. The male is very gentle and sweet but the female will kill if she gets the chance.

Is this normal behavior? I read they were sweet and good with other livestock but this isn't the case with my girl.

For now I have separated them from the other poultry. If any come near her fence she hisses, sticks out her tongue and will even charge the fence. They're very sweet and gentle with us humans tho.
 
I had some of my pilgrims killing chickens one year, so I'm always careful mixing the geese with other poultry. Seems to be hit and miss. Yours is quite young, so hopefully she grows out of it. I would keep her separated so she doesn't continue to develop bad habits.
