The top pic looks how people keep gamefowl. For my ornamental pheasants back in the day I had 10feet deep by 20foot wide divided in 4foot stalls. Worked very well. built in sections just like a house studs were 2foot centers. My flypen stalls that turned into a lean to shed was 10' in back and 10'6 in front 24' wide divided in 4' stalls all 2x4 welded wire. The roof ended up coating alot more cause the tin was I think 32" wide plus an overlap and I figured for 36". Theure really nice and something you'll build once and have for life as long as treated wood is usedA divider...I'm not wasting money making that a solid wall. It'll be metal three feet up from the ground and then netting the rest of the way.

But prettier. The back won't look like that either. It'll be completely open or partially closed as shown by the line halfway across the roosting area.
Geese are seasonal layers. Some of the geese derived from Swan Geese (Chinese most notably) will lay twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall. Mine have only ever laid once in the spring. Of course, they lay more if I pull their eggs and don't let them set. My point is that come spring, when they should be laying and would be separated in order to not produce mongrel goslings, I have no idea if they'll lay. As it stands now, I can bet good money, none of the goslings developing are pure.
