It's funny tho... he didn't bother the grands at all. Would stand and let them pet him...probably because I kept him in line around them but idk..

And keep in mind, I didn't let him get away with it, it's just that he only saw me as Alfa because the older peeps wouldn't show him whose boss, even though they are plenty capable. They'd holler , hey mom get yer goose.. and if you won't stand up to a goose he will stand up to you.. nature of the beast..

That's sweet he allowed the grandkids to pet him. I bet they loved it.

That's true. If you don't stand up then they will take advantage. They can sure sense that. It's pretty amazing. I think it's funny they'd yell to you to get your goose. What breed is he?

They did..lol
I thought it was funny too, and annoying
He's either Chinese or Chinese/Embden. I got his egg from the same lady i got these newest ones from. She isn't sure what hers are, she inherited them through a friend from a lady who passed away 2 years ago. Best we can tell they are Chinese and Embdens... so
He's big tho...

I just looked up that breed on the internet. Beautiful and white. And big. Wow. I'm impressed you incubated him as an egg. It still amazes me how that happens. I bet he was a cute gosling.

That's so disappointing. It has happened to me too with getting a new phone. But I'd love to see pictures of him when you can.
