Geese: March 2008 Archives

Out of 4 eggs that made it to the end 3 hatched.

2nd pip, 1 hatch

1st pip, 2nd hatch - with help

I had to pip thid one myself and help it to hatch the following day.

A trio of goslings

I have black orpington eggs waiting to hatch one day this week and another batch of goose eggs.

It is springtime on the farm! Wish me luck!!

Hatched on day 30 at 11 am. This was the 2nd to pip and 1st to hatch.

My goose eggs are starting to pip!

Maybe we'll have a baby or two by tonight!

I can't tell you how exciting this is for me. I have invested the past 30 days of my life not to mention $$ in these eggs!

Today is the day the goose eggs are no longer turned and we sit and wait and see if mother nature gives us goslings.

I started out with 12 eggs.

Some were clear, a few grew bacteria. 5 grew embryos.

4 have survived.

Fingers crossed and a lot of patience. Goose eggs are very hard to hatch -
