Hello. Would like to talk Geese

[Joyce Nana]

Mama Goose has been sitting on eggs for 37 days. Papa is still on guard duty. I've been tearing up every day now watching her. How long will she sit before she gives up? I'm afraid she is not getting enough nourishment- only leaves nest for a very brief time. It is so sad to watch.

Take the eggs from her and block off the nest site.

 

[Joyce Nana]

Is this unusual behavior to stay with the eggs so long ?

I don't know how long it takes to hatch geese. But could you place food and water near her so she can eat. Usually the poppa goose is supposed to take over while mama gets a break.
