I know that just ratchets up the anxiety level, but you know to be ready to help as needed (and maybe it won't be needed). Good luck!!

The top one had been internally pipped for 36 hours so I gave it a safety hole. The bottom one pipped on it's own and I didn't even see it internally pip.
Another egg is definitely malpositioned and the last is probably a late quitter...

This is the top of the suspected malpositioned goose egg.

This is the bottom / pointy end.

I did an eggtopsy and it wasn't malpositioned, which is good; but it had died without pipping.
The other egg was dead too.
I wasn't sure how long geese should take to hatch, so I did assist.
I have 2 baby geese!
