    hatching geese eggs

    Could the gosling be turned around in your last egg? I would see a bit of movement in my third egg, but never as much and never heard internal pipping. The aircell never got as big as I the other two either, I guess because the gosling never pipped and drew down. Instead it made a hole in the...

    hatching geese eggs

    Reading these hatching posts daily: I've got three (of four original) Pilgrim eggs in the incubator. I believe I'm heading into Day 30. First time hatcher (of anything, there's also 17 duck eggs in there with a "due date" of the 26th). Now and then the eggs would wiggle a bit on their own. I...
