How much should I candle my geese eggs?

[Goose_Goose]

I currently have a broody goose who is sitting on 8 eggs. I am wondering if it is okay to candle eggs everyday? Or should I candle them less. I am extremely excited to have goslings but I don't want to do something to go wrong in the egg.

I would say much less than daily. If you interfere too much the broody may decide to stop setting. 2 or 3 rimes during the incubation should be plenty. Or even never. I rarely candle a broody's eggs and never have issues

I candle my duck eggs 1 or 2 times during the 4 to 7th day the again on the 14th day.

Okay so maybe once every week would be okay until lockdown?
