That is why I ask if she had other breeds because they sure did not look alike. When you look at different goslings you can see differences in their type even as hatchlings. The longer you are in breeding and look on here at BYC and study the type on different goslings on here you can see it better. Even to you your eyes caught the differences. Good for you.

Sounds like a nice mix of the 2 though.

Unless you were planning on breeding that should not be a problem. Cross breeds are pretty too!
