Incubating geese eggs

I have some that havnt hatched yet. I has been 32 days. Some eggs are WAAAAAY bigger than others. They are MUCH bigger around and wont even fit into an egg carton; unless I squeze them in. A few days ago when candling, one egg got away from me and broke on the floor. It lived for 3 days before it finally died. . When it did, I peeled the rest in hopes to figure out what kind they were. It was white/yellow with a black spot on its head. it was the size of my entire palm. Im not sure-positive-sure but I think it was muscovy based on pics i've seen and how long it is taking. Are muscovy eggs really big? Like two and a half extra-large chicken eggs? It's the size (maybe) of a goose egg, but not pointy on the ends.

Yes Muscovy eggs can be larger than JUMBO chicken eggs. BTW I have seen lots of goose eggs, but NEVER one that was "pointy on the ends"!

Pointy end



This is what I mean by "pointy ends". Mine are not like this on the ends.



The one on the top is crested duck (dirty one). This is what I mean by very round ends.



The clean one on the is unknown.

Well, they'll hatch tomorrow or Sunday. Tomorrow, they're goose eggs. Sunday, they're Muscovy.

Hi, this is my first geese incubation, and maybe anyone had one problem like a mine. I put in the incubator (i have a small king-suro 20 incubator) the eggs, but i don`t have much eggs, sometimes one, sometimes two... First time i put there one egg, then 2 eggs (next week), and next eggs another time. Well, the first egg are one little goose yet, and he are okay, running, eating. Next two eggs begin to hatch and one is dead. He begin to hatch, make one small hole in the shell, and after this he die. Another goose did the hole too, and worked width this, and he are okay. When i take a dead egg i see there one dead goose, i see that he`s body not are formed. These 2 eggs was placed in the incubator in one day, lay very close, one are okay, one are dead when begin to hatch and the body of this goose not are formed. Now i want to understand this problem - what was wrong - maybe i put too cold egg to the incubator (i taked it when was a frost)... Why this goose don`t wait when the body will be formed, begin to hatch too early and die?
Two another "eggs" are here on the picture, and they are okay.

All chicken are supposed to be 21 days assuming all the climates and so on are at a desirable range.

Not all chickens hatch at 21 days. I have found the smaller the egg - the quicker they hatch.
My bantam chicken eggs tend to hatch a day or 2 before 21 and my Standard cochin eggs (much bigger) tend to be a day or 2 later.
