Here we go again - I'm hatching more goslings!!

[igotgoosed]

I use tubing for aquarium air pumps.... and siphon in through the vent holes.

Oh good idea! I have some of that luckily!

Chikn, ready for the hourly update!! And please post a pic this time!!

Here's the latest!

 

[Iain Utah]

Very nice Chikn!!! It looks in much better position and the veins in the inner membrane are disappearing while the membrane stays nice and clear. Hang in there!! Look forward to getting Celtic's opinion on if/when to do anything more. For now, keep that bator closed tight!

Ok I forgot to ask, what breed is this gosling we are watching?

 

[Chikn-Chik]

Its an African-Buff Pomeranian cross. I'm keeping it closed!

 

[CelticOaksFarm]

Hhmm interesting cross. Looks to have taken on more African looks from the face so far. Will be curious on how it grows out.

 

[Chikn-Chik]

Full grown they look mostly like Africans, except they have a darker neck instead of the stripe.

OMG! I heard it peep!

I put my ear over one of the vent holes (which was hard to do and make sure I didn't burn myself on those scalding hot screws!), and I heard it! That is the most precious thing ever. I'm on pins and needles now for real!

It's been internally pipped for over 24 hours now. How long will that oxygen last??

IAIN AND CELTIC...INFO???? I still need to put the stuffing on top of the eggs for security...but I was just checking is this good??? Eggs are pointy side down also.
