ARE THESE GOSLINGS MALE AND FEMALE??

[ethan_hart726]

We got both of these goslings from Sutherlands so they should be the same age but one is bigger and chunkier. We are thinking the bigger one is a male and the smaller one is female. Are we correct? I am thinking they are white chinese geese. I have included some pictures.

I discovered that there are several traits that indicate gender, but they cannot be counted on. There is a good video on YouTube. Search "goose vent sexing". Some guy in Australia shows you how to grab them and check them. Your birds are young and you might gave to wait a while to do this. They grow FAST. I didn't have any problems with my ganders until 6 months of age.
