Amazing!

The really bright gosling in front is a male, the two very right and left are females and the middle gosling is a mystery.

Are the parents of the gosling's white?

The middle gosling next to the turkey looks like it had different colored parents

Oh I forgot to update here! The Sebastopol goslings are on lockdown in my NR360. Fortuntely they started to pip right after my chicks finished hatching! I was a little worried about them trying to share space in there, lol.

The two eggs on the left externally pipped on their own and I put safety holes in the two on the right, I didn't hear "weep weeps" from the two on the right so I don't think they're internally pipped but they're definitely moving. Fingers crossed! I'm really comfortable when hatching a lot of birds but my hatching anxiety is still alive and well with the goslings, lol.

Best of luck! Maybe we will get some pictures tomorrow!

Thank you! I hope so! The two goslings on the left seem to be on the same track because both of them have already widened their pips a bit! Hopefully the other two give me some sign that they're internally pipped soon so I can stop stressing!

You put a safety hole in before they internally pipped?

I can see their bills now so we're good on all 4!

The other two that had already externally pipped were also whistling and making the little "weep weep" noises so I wasn't sure about the two I put safety holes in. They looked internally pipped when I candled but I didn't hear anything and the safety hole was too small for me to see more than the breathing...which if I really thought about it would have also been a high likelihood that they internally pipped with the breathing but I wasn't thinking rationally. lol, I did admit I have gosling hatch anxiety .

The lady I bought eggs from gave eggs to her friend and they made it to hatch day but none of them made it out. She also set some herself and had a really difficult hatch with only one gosling in the end. So I was definitely feeling the pressure but we're doing great so far!

Gotcha!

I wish they wouldn't take so long to hatch, the last few days feel like an eternity! These are Sebastopol's correct?
