I consider myself really competent at hatching chickens. I'm really good at it (maybe too good? nah, no such thing)

I have one goose egg. Eggs weren't handled properly (I don't think- I got 6 and only 1 developed, and my friend got 24 and had ZERO develop).

Anyway, this one egg has internally pipped, and I can hear the occasional chirp. Is there anything different with these guys than with chickens? It seems like I'd read somewhere that geese are more likely to need help, either with pipping their egg or whatever.

I'm generally hands off, but I am so attached to the idea of this gosling hatching that I'd hate for it to die because I didn't do something I was supposed to.

HELP!!
