sexing my super africans

[cottontail farm]

I bought these three from Metzers in the sping: one sexed pair plus an extra unsexed bird. Can you help me tell who is who?

Gander?

I cannot tell from your pictures, but africans are pretty easy to sex by appearance and sounds. The males are larger, more upright posture with a longer single honk, and the females are smaller, flatter backs, petite face, and a more staccato shorter honk, usually lower pitched. Boys like to arch their necks high with tip of nose to air. Girls tend to stick neck out lower, and parallel to the ground.

And... the first picture does look like a gander to me.

Thank you. Your advice makes me lean towards what I was suspecting; that I have a gander and two geese. Guess we'll know for sure in the spring.
