So I have 8 Chinese geese 5 white and 3 brown all about 2 months old. I was wondering if there is anything I can look for at this age that would tell me whos a goose and whos a gander. I have noticed that the skin around the eyes on four of the geese (1 brown and 3 white) is very bright orange while the other four (2 brown 2 white) look to have no/pale color around the eyes. Maybe it just has something to do with what they've been eating out in the yard? Or are they like chickens in the sense that at a developmental phase the males skin appears much more pigmented and bright then the females. And I have read and seen diagrams on how to sex geese but I'd rather not go that route...actually I refuse to, gross. lol.
