Geese per gander?

I had one gander for 2-3 females, but I found the females were getting bald on the back of the head. I now currently have 2 gander for 8 goose. They looked better this year. Not sure if they cover all the females.
I guess I’m just going to have to wait and see how mine stack up. I’ll be sure to report how it goes in the spring. One of my other posts, someone mentioned that after the 1st season, the males get better at mating and don’t pull out so many feathers, so maybe that’s what happened for you?

My older gander is 3 this year. There's still some pulling, but nothing too bad.
 
I recently had to reduce their space where they sleep, and the tussles are a little more noticeable as things get going in a whirlwind. It dies down after a minute. Sometimes I can divert their attention with a HEY! or lean over and point not always.

I'll be building them a new place soon so it's just temporary.
