Idk Viable Goose Eggs?

[BekahHah]

Hello. I discovered 6 abandoned wild geese eggs scattered around the nest. The parent birds are gone and there obviously was a battle with some sort of predator, feathers everywhere. Went back the next day and no signs of parents. Took back the 6 eggs, put them under a heat lamp. How do I go about turning them. Idk how far along they are. Can someone please help identify if the eggs are viable or not? What is lockdown period?

Those look about day 4
Not sure about egg 3 but give it a few more days
Turn them 3-7 times a day
Always best to be an odd number so the longer night isn’t on the same side always

I see all 6 viable right now for the most part, 4th one might need a few days. Lockdown is about day 29-32.

Do I turn them 180 or 360 degrees?

They are not blood rings, I believe all of them had a red ring around a dot.

Do I turn them 180 or 360 degrees?

180, it helps to write an x and o on either end horizontally

They are not blood rings?

Definitely not, I see a heart in the middle of the rings and spider like veins.

So turn them half way 7 times a day?

A blood ring is much more clumpy and uneven when you see a ring.

Oh.my. Gosh. Thank you, I was panicking so much!!!
