Good day . New to the forum this year . Trying to hatch my second round of goose eggs ( 1st resulted in two deaths ). We were directed for he guide on incubating and hatching goslings .
Now that we regrouped and started again I have an egg that started to make peeping noise at the fat end of the end . I noticed it about 12 hours ago . From what I understand the chick has broken the into the air cell. But I also understand the air is gone within 24hrs ... no sign of the egg being cracked still .
So should I make a hole in the fat end or wait ? I don’t want it to suffocate ....
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated

I usually do put a safety hole in all my goose eggs. It doesn't hurt and it can save lives.
