What breed of Geese do I have?

What makes you so sure that they are 100% africans? I don't like the heads for african and their necks seem short for chinas. I once had africanXchina crosses that looked like these young geese....

They look exactly like my african did at a young age except maybe a bit darker all over...the color doesn't seem quite dead on for an african but everything else looks right.

It could very well be an african / toulouse mix. I don't see why not. They don't seem to be as fatty or tall as an african should be, but that may be just because they are not show quality by any means... Which probably is due to cross breeding with toulouse anyway.

Note: when I mean toulouse I do not mean exhibition toulouse.
The possibility of them being China/African is real, too.

I would say African geese because I have 3 African geese that look just like them. Here they are....... Sorry not a good pic of them.

I have 2 geese that I thought were Toulouse. However, all the pics I have seen of Toulouse geese they have a yellow bill. Mt 2 have heavy black bills with almost black feet. Sorry I have no pics, I may post some tomorrow if need be.

I have a goose that I was told when I purchased it that it is a Tolouse and I have the exact same question. She is about 3&1/2 months old. Here is a picture of her when I got her and a recent one

Here are a couple pics.

No knobs coming in? Dark breast on the 2nd pic? they don't look particularly heavy like Africans and the all grey coat, and dark breast with lack of knob says to me mix of African/Chinese/Toulouse or some other grey goose.
