You have a brown Chinese I don't know a tone about them I do know a bit about the breeds out of the swan geese. He is beautiful. Your first pictures were hard to figure out. Only 6 months change his diet a bit. He is a lightweight goose breed. If well breed will always look like a long necked dumpling.

The head dose bother me a bit and that he has only been on chicken food just a bit more. So this may help. First of all at 6 months and being a small breed he is close to maturity. Not full growth but dang close so his apatite will change. Now he is a gander (ask your hubby what happens at the end of puberty to adulthood) Anyway....

He just got moved from a non goose world to a goose world (where he belongs) he wants the people world. But you will get him there.

I would offer game bird feed 20% protein or more.(UN-meticated) even a flock raiser 20% plus then use poultry cell vitamin in the feed.
Feed wet. Make sure he has a bucket he can put his head in for water.

As far as introducing him to your girls. My suggestion is give him a pond pan only he can enjoy. let him display in the pond when a girl begs to go in. Let her in.
