This is my African gander and he is 7 weeks old, but hatcherys that sell African's and Chinese are never pure bred! Always mix of both and that's why they are different in size

but they do sell pure breeds but it's rare only well managed places like metzers etc. Would have pure breeds i also ordered africans from a hatchery before and i can tell you they were no way near African! i was stupit to think that since African's are rare here

My African/Chinese crosses were sold to me as purebred Africans from metzer's stock.

my Buff female African

Beautiful!!!

That is wonderful they could do that for you. Good luck making the transition.

I love the color on the buff Africans! So pretty. Where do you get those? I haven't found any at hatcheries. Are they rare like the white Africans?

So my "Africans" are really African X Chinese geese?

Needed a bigger house but not exactly how i expected to get one or how i wanted to get one.
Atleast i dont have to move my animals or anything and its a very short trip for moving our stuff

I got them at a show from a women who breeds exotic breeds and they were for sale so i took the chance

Starfire we don't know yet if they are we will have to wait a month or so to be sure but the African you showed me swimming looks pure at that angle

I would say it worked out, they are stunning! Makes me wish I had a bigger property so I could get some and have separate breeding pens for white Africans, buff Aficans, white Chinese, etc. lol. I am in love with my geese, wish I could have more.

That "African" is 15 weeks old. No knob and about the same size as my 21 week old white Chinese geese, no dewlap though.

Don't you worry! unlike chinese pure African goslings knob grow very slowly and the Dewelp even slower!
It may take 14 months for a dewelp to start appearing
