why is my Goose showing Aggression?

[livininbrazil]

By behavior I would guess a pair. Pictures look like 2 girls. Boris my gander didn't really start walking upright more till he was 7 months old.

I agree, but it´s difficult on behaviour only, because when you get two of the same sex, they can behave like a pair...I feel at least one is a male, but then I have a goose that didn´t manage to hatch out her own eggs, but she´s behaving like a gander after having "paired" with her sister to look after her sister´s young! Extremely protective against all other birds.

I'd say females too, both walking normal and not stepping all over the ducks because they aren't paying attention to where they are going.

Yes, makes sense

If were talking about lady and lucy well lady is a gander and lucy is a male too : D oh and ive a dog too and she dosent chase the geese but sometimes ahe really wild and hyper ,she bashes into everything and haha your geese are getting faster,but tell me whos bigger

Makes sense too....I think you may have scored 2 again, serv!!

Really 2 ganders? maybe why they are so protective of the 3 Pekin ducks??

I never knew that they protected the pekins that makes me feel its a pair or two ganders for sure

I was thinking some where she posted this maybe not I'll have to go check

memory is not as good as it use to be.

I change my mind to two ganders since i looked at the pics for ages

thanks for all the advice ! but no i still am un sure .... she ( he) now leads the whole flock ( herself at the front then Lady then the 3 ducks ) .... and when one of them is more than 20 feet from her she totally flips out and squawks everything . and yes she normally is between you and the flock but i am mama to all of them so after a bit she relaxes and walks around ...idk

Here is what I read serv, don't know if it means anything. Actually here Missy does more of the leading with Sam following most of the time

Ahhh ok but every goose breed when young panic if their buds are gone and lady and lucy are both dudes by the looks of it

Usually it´s my females who lead, but not always. Right now it´s the gtoslings who lead. The males generally bring up the rear.
You´ll soon find out..if a pair, they´ll mate and produce fertile eggs. If it´s 2 females, they´ll try to mate and produce infertile eggs. If it´s 2 males, they will try to mate and then fight.
