Can you go to a feed store and get some anitbiotic that you can add to her water? They sell all kinds of antibiotic additives at feed stores. I use it all the time for my many critters. Just make sure it can be used on waterfowl.

There are two others...One is moving but not pipped. I spray the other eggs anytime I open the bator. I am going to wait a bit longer and then finish zipping the egg but I won't distub the membrane. Then I will put him back and see if he can help himself. He is not squeeking and I am afraid he...

One of my Goose eggs pipped yesterday ..Day 31. YAY... As of this AM, 24 hours later, he has made no progress. I peeled back the shell from the pipped area and moved the membrane slightly and he finally got is beak part way out. He is breathing but does not squeek. My bator humidity is 79 but I...

Sorry that your baby is sick. Please keep us posted.

I wonder if it will work????

Well, I checked again this AM and I think one is moving and the air cell is bulging a little on the side. I hope I am not imaging things. I will keep you posted!

I am on day 30 and none of them has hatched. 1 wasnt fertile, I quit and the others have not pipped internally and I think they are dead. I think my temp was too low. I am bummed

Oh so cute!!!

Okay everyone, I am new to this goose egg thing. I purchased 5 sebbie eggs and let them sit for a day to settle before I put them in the bator. Four of the five grew but it is now day 30 and no internal pips or anything. I had to discard 1 of the four yesterday because it smelled rotten and...

I think this is ingenious!!! good luck.

Hi Will, This information is from batorcrazy and was on another post. Hope it helps ! You can get some ideas about raising young birds from my page on Raising Chicks, but young waterfowl need somewhat different care. Some of this material is a repeat of what is on that page. If you have any...

Goosedragon, Thanks for the information. This is very helpful to me as I ready myself to be a goose mommy.

I bought 5 sebbie eggs and I am really stressing out . I know I can only expect a hatch rate of about 50% for these and am afraid I will do something wrong. My bator temp is 99 and my humidity is 77% . Is the humidity high enough? When they pip, will they drown if the humidity in the eggs is...

Thanks for the help... I think she may also be deaf since she does not startle and does not react to any loud noise. I did get the vitamin B and put a very small amount in her beak and was using an eye dropper to place water on the side of her beak. Finally last night, I got her to take water...

My chicks hatched on Saturday and one of my chicks is blind...I guess. She does not startle or try to get away from my hand and she hides under the other chicks. She also chirps really loud and acts like she is lost. What should I do? The biggest issue right now is I cant get her to drink. I...

I am hatching goose eggs and my bator is supposed to be at 86% humidity. I assumed RH is the same thing. Please correct me. I do have a chart but I don't really understand how to do the wet bulb reading.

My RH needs to be 86% and my dry thermometer temp needs to be a 99. Since I have added the string and water to the dry thermometer to make it a hygrometer, does that mean the new temp reading (wet bulb) on the thermometer should be 95 degrees?

I have a GQF model 1202 air circulating incubator. It came with the thermometer and the string to place in the water receptacle. I have never used the wet bulb method and don't know how to do it. I have goose eggs and will put them in tomorrow. Can someone tell me how to convert from the dry to...

The eggs are completely dark, so I think they are viable. I just don't know if the chicks died or ???
