my geese; 4 four month old American Buffs and haven't decided what Snowflake and Grazie are but they are 7 yrs old and haven't decided whether ganders or geese but great broody and great "Yard Guard Mama's"

And what I thought was cochins are actually D'Uccle bantams and bearded/muffed Easter Eggers/Americana's!

I have as my caption states
about 29-31 (need to count again) Coturnixs most are Pharoahs (normal wild-type and size) and Jumbos.

Most are normal wild colored, two of my pharhoahs however are looking to be Tuxedo mixed with Tibetian, or pure Tibetian in color.

and a golden jumbo

Then 3 button quails- one wild colored pair, and one 1 month old Golden Pearled pied, with wild colored chicks due to hatch soon, annnd with some rareer colored hatching eggs coming my way soon!!!

I just wanted to say that i think one of your buffs is a gander. I read on here a while back that the ganders alert when someone comes close, and put their beak up in the air and I see in both pictures one of the buffs is doing that

my geese can be noisy or quiet;) When they hear the engine to my vehicle or four wheeler, they are very noisy long before I can see them when I come home! When they are peeping to me when I do a night security walk and they are sleeping, they are sweetly quiet peeps;) They chase the ducks around so I'm separating them this weekend and don't dare have them w/chickens either!

Guessing, I was thinking I might have two or three Buff ganders and am wondering if the pink billed Buff is a goosey girl, haven't a clue w/the white and grey geese but at least one if not both laid eggs last three years that froze so I ordered the Am Buff goslings for them to raise;) Have read about sexing them by vent but have not tried it yet...

. I'm still betting atleast one of your buffs is a gander, but maybe two of them are (the one looks like it wants to put it's head up--maybe its' a submissive male).

I'm still learning but that's my thoughts off of what others have said about the position they take when someone comes around (head up).
