goose sexing question Updated with another question!!!

[austinhart123]

i am convinced that all 4 of my geese are males....but my dad dissagrees, ive heard them all hiss and they never mate. i want to rehome 3 of them and keep my favorite and get a female or two from my friend.....but my dad wont let me unless i proove that they are all males....does anyone know how i can do that without paying 25$ each for a test...theyre butts are too fluffy to sex them manually
New Question! can somone please post a pic of sexing a goose, i tried to do it today bit i think i did it wrong, one of the two that i suspected were females honks way deeper and the other one didnt make a single noise the whole time! the only luck i had was with the first one, it sounds like a male it is nine months old, when i sexed it a red thing that looked like a short earthworm cane out

"their butts are too fluffy..." HA Ha, that's the best excuse anyone's come up w/yet! I don't want to vent sex mine either How old are yours? Maybe they're too young yet...? And what breed(s)?

 

[MissPrissy]

Girls most often have louder honks.

lol....ive actually tried to sex them and i cant even see their vent cause of the fluff............2 of them are two years and the other two are 9mo old

also, when i had white pekin ducks, i noticed the females had paler beaks than the males, and all these have bright orande beaks (they are sebostaple)-excuse my spelling

I'd say they're still pretty young...I think if you wait to see any egg laying and mating you'll know, along w/listening like MP says My girls are very loud and now I've got to begin listening to see if I've got all girls!:O

 

[austinhart123]

thanks, but is it true that only males will hiss?

 

[MissPrissy]

No. That is false.

 

[austinhart123]

......that means there is still chance that i might have females......but the thing i mentioned about the beaks in the earlier post, can u answer that please?

I know it is not always reliable......but does feeling the pelvic bone help sex geese?
