My observations:
Goslings are much calmer than ducklings.
Ducklings are way more food driven.
Goslings do not mind being picked up and when I sit in their pen, they like to crawl up on me to go to sleep.
Goslings like to sit in their water bowls, but don't play with water the way ducklings do.
Goslings are more expressive and interact with me more... and they cry loudly when I leave the room.

x2
They also bite much harder and grow much faster. They are more inquisitive, and are like babies or puppies chewing on everything. Mine aren't very loud, unless they've made a mess and need more water. If they hear me talking then, they will talk back until I come see what they need.

i officially have an issue lol.
I NEVER ANSWER THE HOUSE PHONE.
well when grandma called the post office,
to let them know we had birds coming soon.
well she gave them the house phone number to call (the box has my cell on it)
well the housephone rang.
so me being me i went running down the stairs, cat and dog both running between my feet (im use to this, but its tricky)
i end up hitting my toe on something (idk what)
so now my toe is bleeding,
and it was just the bank calling for grandma.

This round of eggs all picked up, marked and weighed in. Out of two sets of Saddleback Pomeranian goose eggs only have 1 set to incubate. The others smashed each other in transit which stinks!
