Cross breed question

[aldren90]

Will my sebastopol geese mix with my canadians if i have a pair of canadians housed with a pair or two of sebbies i know they can do it but do you think they actually would? Even if they have their own mates

If that have a mate it's less likely they will cross breed however there is always a possibility of it happening.

Ok the canadian kinda dislike but tolerate the sebbies any way so i think if they wanted they would but most likely not wouldnt ya think?

I think that if you want purebred goslings, you keep your different breeds separated.

If ganders form a pair-mate bond, they will still sneak out and cheat on their spouse. Domestic geese do not pair like wild geese and you are raising the Canadas like domestic geese, so I would not expect them to form a strong pair bond, either.

If you want crossbreds, that's fine. Just don't pass your goslings off to the public as purebreds. And no, sometimes you can not sort them out just by their looks.

Canadian and Grey-lag descended geese crosses are most always infertile. (they can produce offspring, but those offspring cannot reproduce.)
