I was given 2 geese yesterday that came from some pretty bad conditions. They had said they were African geese... But I'm thinking one is African ( fatter with the neck pouch thing) and one is Chinese. Both are scared to death and have rubbed their head knots raw. They lived I. Tiny pens full of poop. I have them in a fenced acre with a kiddie pool half of the area is tall grass and the rest is shady and at the edge of the woods. Can anyone tell me if I'm right about what kind they are and if they are male or female?

Aww they are gorgeous so nice of you to "rescue" them. Most likely with some nice TLC they will be eating out of your hand soon. Welcome to BYC

Can you tell me how to tell they are males?

 

[servpolice]

A lot of people ask me that and it is very hard to explain for me haha but they both have features males should have for that breed.
The Chinese structure and walks like a male
and i see it in their face :/ Swan type geese are very easy to identify for males and females .
