I'm hatching African geese to show in August, age doesn't matter at the show but I need two of the opposite sex. What age is the best to tell what the difference is? Is it possible to confirm when they're this young?

Hi!
Is there anyway besides vent sexing (I have no idea how to do that) to tell a male from a female goose?? Just got these two African geese who were born this spring, the people I got them from couldn’t even give me a round about month of when they were born. 🙃
