Should have added, based on the lack of knob bud, I'd guess Toulouse!

I had a bossy female named Big Sissy because she truly was their big sister with a attitude to match her size, but the rest of my hens aren't so much.

I wasn't sure if in fact the bigger, bossy goose was just being their fearless leader (biggest chicken goose I have ever met) or a big pain in their hinders. When they are all together she or he runs the show and when I put them (2 geese from ducks) apart at night they whine for the ducks. WHAT DO YOU WANT?!!

geese and turkeys are not "dumber" than other poultry. They, like parrots, are smarter. Dumber fowl and animals have more instinct. The smarter the organism, the less instinct driven it is. Which means they have to be taught. Geese are smart and want you to solve their distress. That they can get anxiety, shows they are too smart for their britches.
