As for broody geese so you have others that could have added a few eggs. Also when a goose goes broody there no usually done laying they will add a few more. makes a short 31 day hatch turn into a 40 day hatch. an day 33-34-35 there all yours. To many babies requiring there intimidate...

Im sorry Im late in answering on my side. Assisted hatches are always a issue. Silly question do you think some of the shrink wrapped men brain ended up on the eye? Saline sounds good to me. So every hatch of 20 plus goslings someone gets shrink wrapped. Most of the time its where the inner...

Im in northern Colorado I do have a few for pick up I do ship day olds but booked for the last 3 hatches.

The air cells are really small they may have been early quits. They look like there retracting. Good mama didnt give up

There is no real answer in how or when to assist. But Iv learned if there not going to finish the hatch sometimes there just not. Goslings can internally pip and not do a exterior pip for 48 hours. I usually panic at 48 and create a tiny breathing hole. then sit on it for another 24 hours. The...

Sky diver overhead. (live next to the sky diving airport ) also the crop dusters. Lots of hawks but no its a human talking in the air happy screaming that got this boys attention. Note the girl behind him yep just another day.

Bought a new incubator this year it blew a fuse. When I found out the next morning the eggs were cold to the touch. Put them in a hova bator till we got the new cabinet fixed took a week. Best largest hatch of the year.

Im so happy for you, Yes provide baby water and food close to the nest. Mom will stay on the nest till she is done.

Hiss back its time to re-gain the pecking order. Its ok geese are all about pecking order and without you they established a new one. This time of year most of my ganders hiss at me. When they do it I lower my head make them walk away sometimes hiss back. Next month they will all be thanking...

It will eventually fall off I wouldn't go with antibiotics. When they hatch to quickly or from a small egg some have a yolk belly. Given time and humidity they usually pull it in. when shipped they dont get that special time. will probably fall off.

Save a chick probably are not the right ones to use. Not sure they would hurt anything. I will try this again next year but need to do more research. I used the probiotics in the study got them in there purest form with no preservatives. The goslings took 3 extra days to hatch and needed...

I respect people who raise geese for there meat. I know Im not loved for that. But it is what keeps there heritage need and there existence going. By fall you will have a clue on which are boys. But they may not be to weight yet. But here is someone who can give you more information. @AGeese

I can only give you a hint on color. well you have a pink bill and dark patches. but breaks in the color pattern so will be pied. African and Chinese don't usually pie like that in color. Pied means patches of color. So it is probably leaning at the euro breeds. Bill is flat and long not...

She is dreaming about babys. Your doing great. Se is being a good mama and you have been a great papa.

They will respect you, Listen to you and look to you. So much better than imprinting on you.

Adding protein see if you can find these things locally. Flax seed (after they extract the oil) Sunflower seed shelled Safflower seed shelled Feed during molt.

Toy's tots of toys. Something to do all the time. Think of geese like that new puppy you just got that just chewed up your favorite whatever. So the only toy is a new gosling. Geese just need to be active all the time. If there only toy is a younger smaller sibling...well There just like a...

Your ok there is more lead in a pencil than ink. I used pencils this year and sharpies last year, Do not notice a difference. Except the pencil fades.

Im not much of a believer in splints. more Niacin and B's a little warm water to float in a few times a day. Takes the pressure off. They grow fast a few weeks of your time may grow right past it April my favorite girl came with a broken leg in shipping she is 4 now thats what I did.

How is she doing! I think its easier on them then us there on a mission. were like the expecting dad. Watch all the crazy but not a dang thing we can do about it just go "tell me what you want I will get it for you"
