Well... I remember reading a description of how to do this - I think it was our Fangs that wrote it on the PP Forum... It involved turning the goose/gander upside down and squishing it's bits....

Is there an easier way ? PLEASE? We've got 4 embden/toulouse cross (VERY CROSS a lot of the time) geese - about 8 months old... supposedly 3 females and one male. However, I think that there are at least 2 males and possibly more. They fight a lot with our other Embdens - although the one that I think is pretty definitely a female is tolerated well by the Embdens and is not aggressive at all.

Also, there seem to be at least 2 that are mating the one I think is female... I know that ducks can get confused so possibly so can geese.

Any goose experts out there??

Thanks Very Happy

Shirley

As far as I know it's only the males who are really agressive, my female is not half as bad. It does sound as if you've got at least 2 males.
I remember the post you mean, just can't remember what it said, i'm pretty sure it was Fangs who posted it.
