Most geese have to lay at least 8 or more before they get hit with the broody bug.Hello, I have a Super African goose starting to lay eggs in her nest and I am wondering how many eggs she will lay before she start the incubation period
Quote: My Embden girls love a PILE but my Chinese think 5 or 6 is plenty. I use the ceramic eggs to keep broody hatches lower, and pull the fakes out when I know my hen means it, lol. Too many eggs will result in a low hatch rate and wasted eggs.
I have two African females and they are laying eggs in the same nest I was wondering if they would end up laying a clutch for each bird or they would each lay half a clutch and are they going to incubate together?
Many of my hens will, and do brood together. Its kinda funny too! if I give them more bedding and check the girls weights while brooding, you see them stealing each other eggs! My 2 oldest Chinese girls always set up nesting together.
Quote: The hens get along well, and were a fantastic mothering team! Had -0- issues with them sharing the babies, and was precious to see how the flock looked over them. Mother geese are ferocious when they have goslings but my hens all seem to help each other with mothering. I have good hatch rates either incubating or letting my girls brood, but I usually have extra ganders too.
I did have issues with my big embden girl smashing eggs, so I took hers and incubated all of them.
