![]() I, Weeping Willow, know many a story of my flock. My beloved acquired thirteen geese. Two of these were most unfortunately lost before names were given or pictures taken. Of the ganders and the geese who were named and well known there was Eastern Redbud, Baldcypress the Big and Cowardly, Poison Sumac the Small, Black Oak the Loud, Pecan of the Black Eyes, Mimosa who was a skilled fighter, White Ash the Sweetest of Them All, American Elm who was known for her beauty, Paper Mulberry the Wise and Brave, Sassafras of the Dark Head, and Mockernut Hickory of the White Band. Elizabeth, #99, Batch #015. Hatched June 24, 2020.
Darker markings compared to Mary Beth. Mother is Siberian Elm and father is therefore likely to be Black Cherry. Looks a lot like previous goslings who were her siblings. Hatched around 8:00 PM. Mary Beth, #100, Batch #015. Hatched June 24, 2020. Lighter markings compared to Elizabeth. Mother is Siberian Elm and father is therefore likely to be Black Cherry. The sweeter of the two and pretty unique face. Uncertain of when she hatched but was probably during the night of June 24. Found hatched on June 25, 2020.
I have been raising Gray African/Chinese geese for two years now and I have heard about the white geese. People often have them alongside a gray goose in pairs. I had been speculating on changing to Roman geese until I found out that they are very likely to have defects but white Chinese geese would make up for that. I believe they are supposed to have blue eyes like all the other white geese but I am not sure. White Chinese geese are supposed to have a colorless gene instead of a white gene. Making everything regarding breeding totally different.

my name is EmilyI have twenty-eight geese. I hatch a bunch of goslings because I want a lot of people to have geese. I do not see them everywhere but I want to! The goslings are the sweetest baby birds I know! The adult males are proud and can be cranky but have their sweet moments while the females are shy and sweet all at the same time. Categories
