gosling hatch

[danielmurphy20]

hi guys,my gosling pipped 2 days ago and i noticed the egg was extremely dried out so i assisted a bit,but 12 hours has passed and she still hasn’t moved much,she is breathing perfectly and no sign of an unhealthy gosling
i’m just a bit worried as any other bird i’ve hatched (chicken,quail,duck) seem to dry out in 3-4 hours but this gosling is still wet
is this normal

What did you see when you assisted - eg., active veins, blood? This article on assisted hatching may be helpful.

only the slighted but if blood,nothing much,she definitely did not loose any blood from it
