I just started with geese about 2 weeks ago,so im no expert.But,as far as I know,both parents take part in care,so I do not think the father will "Intententionly" kill what is his.

Geese work together to protect their goslings. Ganders are great with goslings. Only thing that could happen is goslings getting trampled if the geese got startled.

Ducks and geese are entirely different drake have been known to kill their ducklings mainly because they don't see them as theirs. Gees for pair bonds so they are a tight couple. Both care for their goslings. Even ducks have been known to kill their ducklings especially if first timers.

About the only way you can stop your goose from laying in the duck coop is to keep her out of it. My goose likes to lay her eggs inside the duck coop too I really don't know why because she has a nice house with plenty of bedding but they all seem to like to lay where others are laying.If I find a goose egg inside my duck coop I move it to the goose house once she sees a few of her eggs in her house she usually will continue to lay there. If I want gosling if not I just keep taking her eggs. . They are quite tasty too.
