This is my first time running into this problem. I'm assuming it's because these goose eggs were shipped (which I don't buy shipped eggs very often at all, so not experienced with this) so I'm assuming the handling of them damaged the air cells quite severely. I have them slightly elevated. The one egg is so bad that over half of the egg is consumed of air. Gosling is still alive and growing at 12 days so I'll give it a shot. The others aren't so bad but the air cells are still much larger than they should be and very irregular in shape. So onto my question; since I won't be able to really watch the air cell progression like in a normal goose egg, I'm not sure what to do about the humidity now. I like to keep the humidity around 30-40% till internal pip, but these eggs have very large air cells to begin with. Should I bump up the humidity a little higher than usual? I don't want their air cells to be so large by the end of incubation from the added natural moisture loss. Or will bumping up the humidity now still put them at risk for drowning? I'm a little confused about what I should do. Anyone experienced this? Any advice would be really appreciated. I was really looking forward to these pilgrim geese...
