GOOSE BREEDING THREAD - for breeding, incubating, hatching and rearing.

[Miss Lydia]

It rocks at about :50 and I can hear it right then. I'm trying my BEST not to hover, but keep going into the room every half hour to peek. Am NOT opening the incubator, just looking, listening to them and squealing! I read that it'll recognize my voice if I talk to him/her... I can't wait!!

That is very exciting, keep with the updates and of course pics..

Hi I am momma a 10 yr old goose and I never sit on my
egg's but my pet human has found 4 of them and put them
in the incubator and it has been 10 days now ....

Yay, look forward to seeing pet humans goslings when they hatch!!!

Miss lydia haha all geese are the same when brooding but all i know is that my embdens greylags and toulouse are my most bitey and attacking while my swan geese types let my rub them and grab goslings from them

True! My chinese are sweet when broody i can pet and pick them up. My romans are nightmares, my Maggie took a fit when i opened the spy door during her last days sittin, flapped her wings and threw a gosling at me. Good thing they are fluffy and can bounce when small. Her being white and the gosling was dark i wasnt quite sure what she threw at first.
I took it as her saying " here take the dang thing you impatient twit" lol

It would have been aweful to have to go to the ER and tell them i lost an eye from a goslings butt lol
I didnt take those i had 12 of my own already i was just making sure she was ok but that wasnt good enough

HAHA! I just BURST into laughter after reading that first sentence!

I just feel sorry for the poor gosling. Not about being hurt, because I'm sure he was okay. But rather for having a mother that has no problems throwing him around!

Some mamas just don't like anyone peeking in on them. I have some Muscovy ducks like that.
