Anyone incubate an egg that you had very little hopes for after research but its thriving?

I tossed in a big "Beast Egg" laid by our Embden goose. I suspected it's a double yolker and when I looked it up everything I read said it wouldn't hatch. Well Lockdown day is in 4 days and theres still movement in there. Anyone ever hatch a double yolker egg. Probably only one baby. But still I thought at day 14 I would toss it but nope it's thriving. If it hatches should I nickname it Beast? Lol.

I saved a chicken egg that was cracked on the rounded side by applying some whole wheat, unbleached flour as a paste with some water (and giving it time to dry). It was one of the first to hatch.

Aw! I'm hoping to hatch chicken eggs for the first time this year but right now I'm overloaded with goose eggs lol. So my chicken adventures will be later this year.

Definitely a great memory to share with those we care about like family, people from church, memories, everyone, etc Lol. They will cherish it for a lifetime

XD the idea was to sell the goslings that hatch but its making it hard to part with this one if it does hatch cause I didn't think it would develop lol I have considered seeing if our girls will accept goslings without going broody cause our girl Gizzy tried stealing goslings that our broody hen hatched last year even though she wasn't broody. Just waiting to see for now XD But it's definately a surprising memory lol
