Yeah, the BBS is the color. In her case, she said she had BBS orps, orps would be short for orpingtons, so that's the breed.

Gotcha! Mine are Buff Orps, but I didn't see the Orpington part <grins>
How are the pips, Shelley??

What happen to your goose eggs shellyd2008...Good Luck with the ducks ....they seem to take longer once they pip mine take any where from 24 to 36 hours after they pipped to actually hatch....I had a cayuga hatch yesterday and he is a lonely duck.....

They are still just pips. All 3 have pipped now, but they are just sitting there teasing me!

The goose eggs never really did do much of anything. I had one that I thought was developing, the yolk looked darker than the other eggs, but when I opened it, I didn't see anything in it. There were 2 that quit early on, but the other two didn't do anything. I have one more in the bator from the same person, and at day 7 it had pretty good veins, so maybe I'll get a baby goose after all! I'll have a baby goose eventually anyway, as I plan on ordering from metzer in March, but I may just have one sooner! Plus it is due to hatch about the same time as 5 pekins and 12 cayugas, so it won't be lonely!
 
Had #4 pop out this morning sometime. The BO fuzzy butt is still damp!!
4/5 so far!! Pretty good hatch rate so far/// Waiting on #5
