My bator came today-- it's upstairs in my workroom, heating up . I also had some eggs arrive (GOOSE!) So they're sitting in a nice dark spot, waiting for the right moment to enter the warmth that awaits them. (Probably tomorrow morning, I'm thinking, since the incubator was plugged in initially at about 1:30 this afternoon... I want to make sure I know as much as possible about my incubator before I put these little (er... not so little!) eggs in.) I'm not expecting great results. I'd be happy with one hatching. I have a second incubator coming that's going to be my 'hatcher'-- my egg turner is also on its way... I just don't know exactly how old these goose eggs are, so I don't want to wait too long. This is what I get for doing this when I don't own any fowl of my own!
Congrats! Make sure to get tamp and humidity stablized before you put the eggs in. Then after you put them in, don't touch the temp knob for a full 24 hrs so that it can re stablize. Good luck!
