    Is my goose egg dead?

    Hi guys, it’s my first time incubating goose eggs and when I candled one of my eggs today it looks almost perfectly normal like the other one that is closest to hatching, but when I turn it slightly it’s got something that sort of jiggles inside that wasn’t there last candling. Last candling...

    Hatching saddled air sacs - upright vs. on side

    Q: Is it best to HATCH eggs with attached, though saddle shaped air sacs on their sides, or upright in egg cartons? Pros and cons of each? I am on day 18 of incubating 5 bantam eggs. All eggs are thriving well, though 5/5 eggs have fairly severely shaped, though normal sized saddle shaped air...

    Am I doing this right?

    As of a week ago, I got my first incubator and I've had eggs in it from day 1! I've read a lot on here and on other websites but I keep hearing from others in my family/friends that I'm not doing it right. Some info on my incubator: I got it from the farmers market in my town, it's a Little...
