Poultry, yep a grey. The grey color presents itself in a wide variety of shades from light to dark and they don't have just one tone when they are a grey. Typical grey Sebastopols have whites as well as a few shades of grey on their adult feathers. Yours could be a lighter tone of grey, or could feather darker. Will be fun to watch it feather in, which it won't be long before you start seeing the first signs of feathers starting.


aaa, yours is a gander at best guess from those pictures/angles. No distinct cap and saddle would have me saying its a gander. The girls as goslings get a very disguishable dark cap and saddle. Of course this is only true on goslings from all white parents.

Celtic thanks He is supposed to be from all white parents, I specifically asked for only white, but who knows from ebay! Of course the only one of 7 from 3 different sellers to hatch would be a gander, but I am in love so now to find him a white goose ...or two... any ideas where to get a goose?

Celtic what would a taffy look like as an adult? I have one who is supposed to be white who looks like the one aaajjss1 sent in also from ebay eggs. Hmmmm... By the way Patton has an appt. with the bird vet today at 5 p.m.

No such color as taffy in Sebastopols. There are buffs, lilacs and lavenders. How ever whites are hatched with colored down and they then feather white.
