gamekeeper1960 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Hi All, well heres another conundrum to mull over How do you sex male and female tame white geese ?? A mate of mine reared a few this year for christmas dinners and someone has asked him if he has a spare gander as they have two geese and they want to breed them.Well now I can just about work out cock and hen pheseants but as for sexing these things its a different ball game we even looked on line but to say the least this were'nt much better even the one video on youtube is so grainny we could'nt work out if he'd got the bird the right way up. So if any of you wise fellows has a better way of telling then please let me know..Cheers Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter.123 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Long necks will be a gander, I farmed geese from a very young age. Lay the goose on it's back, part the feathers to find the bits and part them to see what it reveals,(be carfull 99% squirt at you) it is very easy once you have done it once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gixer1 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 If it lights up a cigarette after it "squirts" it's a gander, if it hugs you ....it's a goose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
