    What happens if one goose dies when the goslings are still young?

    Thank you. That is so good to know. I've also observed that the other geese keep their distance for the most part so it's nice to know there isn't a real threat of other geese injuring them. We've lived here for 8 years and can recognize familiar geese, I have fallen in LOVE with geese and it...

    What happens if one goose dies when the goslings are still young?

    We have a pond behind our apartment that the same geese frequent in their wanderings(one of them has seven goslings which are almost adults now!). They are wild Canadian geese. There is another family with much younger goslings(3 of them) who frequent our pond and stop by our apartment daily...

    uh-oh this CANT be good.. picture inside :-(

    Noticed today, 2 very very very small spots where a white frothy liquid is leaking from. I've looked as close as I can and cannot see any holes or cracks... I guess I should discard of the egg and call it quits? But before I do I wanted to see if anyone else ever experienced this & if someone...

    Quote: LOL!!! Well, that makes me feel better, it might just be dirty from the nest, etc. and the humidity mixing with it. I tend to get paranoid when I am worried about something ...! Well only another week or so will tell! I'll try to stop worrying and relax. Thanks Wifezilla:-)

    another question for you all... woke up and the darn humidifier was off, for the maximum of an hour. Looked at the egg, noticed 2 brown drops, took a clean darn warm qtip to blot it away & see what it was and it was sticky, just as caramel would be, same color as well.. ( I smelt it and it...

    Saved a goose egg, is it too late tho? Please help:(

    hi guys :-) just an update, egg is no longer stinky! I found out it was the moisture in the room and the cardboard creating the stink bomb...! Fixed that:-) I'm giving it another week or two. Also, there is no incubator so I 'm using a heating pad, some soft towels, a box and a humidifier and...

    Saved a goose egg, is it too late tho? Please help:(

    Hi guys, actually the odor is going away!!! :-) I think it may have just been from being in that stinky nest :-p I'm definite that there are no goslings hatched, the mother and father (this happened last night) have came back & are still lingering this whole day by our porch, no babies...

    Saved a goose egg, is it too late tho? Please help:(

    Hi there, I gently shook the egg, no sounds.. no sloshing. The egg felt pretty solid. I guess another week should tell. Yea, I thought that was odd, too. I've seen those geese in action! But yes, I saw the cat, he even tried to go for seconds. My husband thinks it was a more weasel like...
