My neighbor gave me a gosling the h goose hatched out because she abandoned it. It's about 2 weeks old. I left her with a friend when I went out of town a I came back to a raspy gaspy gosling. I can hear every breath she takes its squeaky. She had no food or water when I got home. And some of...
My neighbors have geese that decided to hatch out Little goslings. Well one of the hens left a baby behind and my neighbor found it half dead in the nest with no mother or siblings arond. They got the gosling all warmed up and tried to give it back to the Mother but it stepped on it and walked...
Hey guys. I have three ducklings trying to hatch right now. All have begun pipping. I noticed the pips 6 hours ago. No one has pipped all the way through yet and no one has made any more progress. They are under a broody bantam hen. What do I do? Let them sit longer or open the pip?
So I had a bantam go very broody all of a sudden a few months ago and I have no roosters so I assumed that she would give up after a few days and she didn't.... so my neighbor gave me some assorted fertile duck eggs and I out 4 under her. They were growing great. I candled them every 5-8 days to...

I ended up pipping a hole in the egg just to make sure she has sufficient air to breathe! It had been about 17 hours and I was worried about her running out of air haha. She pipped and hatched about 5 or 6 hours later! Nice healthy happy chick! I gave up on the other three on day 23, I float...
Hey everyone. I have a 2 day old serama, who is a bit... Odd. She keeps pulling on her wings and feet and when she does she screams and falls over. Other then that she's completely normal. Should I be concerned?
I barely missed it I think. I think it was just a bit more to the left of where I pipped. She's definitely tapping! I didn't recandle. I just put her back! Hopefully she's out in the morning! I'm just relieved she has an air hole. I've never helped much o made a hold about the size of a BB and...
Okay I candled and found her beak. Marked it and made a tiny hole enough for me to see. It was not the beak o found but a wing tiniest little spot of blood so I dabbed it and it stopped I wraped her egg in a wet paper towel and put her back for a couple hours to see if maybe she will figure it...
