was just wondering, after seeing the various eggs on ebay of different geese it got me thinking if 1 or 2 eggs would fit in my bator. I have the brinsea mini advance (turned eco if the eggs would actually fit) but was just wondering if anyone reckons you could actually fit a goose egg in there, and even if anyones tried to hatch them in the same bator :D also if it could fit would the size of the egg compared to incubator have an effect on the incubation of the egg such as maintaining the right inner temps n stuff.. I currently have just set 6 indian runner eggs yesterday, first time hatching in 2 years so wish me luck fl.gif
