2017 Gosling Hatch a long!!

[Nannette114]

Also, new ducklings arrived, idealpoultry were awesome and paid for priority shipping so I got them as truly day olds. The difference is already like night and day. The other chicks ate and drank, but these are vigorously drinking and eating, and playing with the older ducks too. I'm just so happy. View attachment 1035826

Oh I'm so pleased about the ducklings. Thank goodness they are ok. Maybe the last lot were a 'bad batch'?
I know what you mean about the internal pipping...mine have shadows at the back.if the air call and I can see them pushing against the membrane but I don't think any of them have actually internally pipped yet. They've been like that for two days now!
It's like an actual goose head shadow inside the air space isn't it when they've pipped?

I'm so new to this, but yes I think so.

I was out getting the new pump installed in the new pool, and Violet the sebbie decided to help.

Lol! Same boat over here! I've hatched so many ducks and chickens but only geese a few times!

Welcome though. What kind of geese are you incubating?

LOL! She will, but only when I can follow her around with a net!

Lol, that's a good thing! Cause if none of these hatch I'll need a lot of sympathy and shoulders to cry on.

I'm going to go candle the two eggs left. Fairly certain I'll be tossing one of them, and I need to remember to draw out the air sack and the giant saddlebag so I know which way I can rotate it without killing the baby.

Wish me luck. Lmao
