Is it hard to hatch goslings?

[luvmydux]

I am considering putting some goose eggs in the bator for the first time ever. Only just recently got into geese. Since I have a hen laying, I might as well try, right? I was wondering if they are similar to ducks as I feel pretty comfortable with them. Does anyone have any insight? Is there anything that is really important to know about incubating geese? Anyone out there willing to try it out with me? Let me know!

Best suggestion is to read Pete's guide to hatching geese here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/491013/goose-incubation-hatching-guide-completed

i incubated geese for the first time this year. It is a LOT of work and much more labor intensive than chickens. But it is so cool to hatch out goslings. Just be prepared for your life to revolve around those eggs for 30 days.
