Getting Missy clutch down to a smaller size, left all of 4 eggs from Iain Utah and took #10 away opened and it's fertile. I'm amazed, some juice still left in the ole boy after all. Still no sign of broodiness though and she laid #15 this morning.

Like watching milk come to the boil! Waiting..............

Oh, good. The gozzie has about 24 hours once it´s broken through the membrane until it needs to break through the shell. Is it making little noises and tapping? Exciting!

No noises and tapping, thus my reason for concern.

Still no external pips this morning, so I may make an emergency air hole late this afternoon, just in case. Don't want to lose one for being just a tad tardy. Gosling #1 is dried out now and in the brooder. Sort of getting the whole walking thing down in fits and starts. But in his/her defense, it had a big day yesterday.

And I just looked at my schedule again last night and realized I have potentially 17 more babies on the way due Monday. Only one goose in that batch, though. Here's hoping they come soon if these two don't make it out. Gozzie needs a buddy and the turkeys will only be roommates for a few days.

Congrats on Sammy still having it in him. Maybe you'll get babies from him instead, which would be great! I hope she goes broody soon!!

Will they be as grumpy as him? He's turned into Ivan the Terrible. lol.. and just peaked inside their house and Missy is inside laying on her eggs.
