HELP! Canadian Goose

[ritaann13]

I found a goose egg on March 30th in the pond half submerged, it was about 45degrees. We took it home and started incubating, miraculously the egg developed and is now fully formed in the shell, no internal pip though. Today (day 30) we noticed two little spots on the shell that oozed a clear sticky fluid, just a little. The temp is 37.5c and the humidity at 70%. Could it be pipping? Or is it dead in the shell? There is no odor whatsoever... hoping for good news...

Welcome to BYC. Oozing generally indicates bacterial contamination. I hope that all turns out okay.

Not a good sign. Don't count on it hatching.

That egg looks really gross to me. Be prepared for the egg to explode when handling it.

There's a good possibility that Mother Goose knew the egg wasn't right & kicked it out of the nest; mothers know these things.

True. The egg probaky won’t hatch so momma goose threw it out
