[ladybug4ut1]

Can some one help me by telling what kind of these geese are and if they are male and female or what. I bought one at the auction and they other some one traded me so i do not know what kind they are and would like to know.

Thanks

I would say the white are embden ( I just lost my male yest.) and the gray might be african. Sure are pretty

One of the whites looks like it has a bit of a tuft though? Could they be romans?

I think the white one on the left may be a cross. It seems to have a tuft of feathers on top its head like my Tufted Romans. Does the bird have blue eyes?

No i do not believe they do.​

Then they are not embdens. Embdens have blue eyes (so pretty!

)

They look kind of like a mix between white chinese and roman tufted/embden (Embden for the not tufted one)? The one with the tuft has a bit of a knob, if you look closely.

I saw that sorta-nob too and was wondering about it.

Roman-White China cross? The necks are too long and thin to be pure roman.

my embden had blue eyes and bright orange surronding the eye. . . made him look like the devil so he was named Lucifer, Lucy for short! The brown one looks like a brown china goose.
