I have on gander, am Embden. He will be Christmas dinner, so I've been hands off with him, so he isn't friendly and I'm not attached.
Anyway, he seems to be the barnyard playground monitor. He gets...upset, when my ducks start boinking. And you know how ducks are, they do it a lot. He'll run up to the couple, honking and trying to shove the drake off. He doesn't try and mate, just blocks it when others do.
He even does it when the chickens go at it! At least they are quicker, the roosters are more likely to 'hit and run' so they're done before the goose gets to them. But if they take their time, then the goose will try to remove the rooster from the hen.
Is this...normal?
