Start his training early if he is biting. Most young ganders will. Gee is about 12 now, BB (big boy) is 11. When a goose bites I get 1 arm around those wings and one on the neck just below the head. Down we go, I pin them down to the ground. That's the natural interaction geese do to set who's the boss or "alpha". I've only had 1 gander that didn't learn his place over around 45 years keeping them.. He was sold to someone on here for a Christmas dinner. I was very ill when you got them so sadly your gander didn't get proper training.

I wanted to hit both the sad and love on that post, so I had to split it up.
I think so too!
The “male” is a week or two older than the “female”, which is why the size difference. But his behavior- he just walks around mimicking the gander! It’s pretty hilarious, except I’m afraid he’s going to learn Dad’s bad habits. I don’t need two biters!
OH MY! Handsome fella!
