Let's have a gosling hatchalong!

[RURU]

Goose and Fig, Nutmeg was electricuted and died with her mouth around the wire. She was a terible chewer chewed on everything and that was her down fall. She went into someone elses pen and did this. She was shocked to death. I am so sick over it still because she would have been the start of my Buff breeding program.

1MrsMagoo what a cute gosling and congrads on your first of the season gosling!

The first gosling of the season finally hatched last night! It is still working on drying off and has a bunch of gook from the egg lacquered on its poor head (I'll clean those off a little at a time), but is doing good! It is from the eggs of the goose in my avatar. From the colors on the down patterns, it looks like it will have decent markings.

The second egg I put in with this one internally pipped in the early AM today. So, if all goes well, I will have a second gosling by the end of the weekend. I have a couple more eggs that should be getting close: I have to go candle those and do their cool and mist sequence in a few minutes.

Congrats on your first gosling of 2013!!!

So precious!!!!!!!

Oh that's awful. So sorry.
I am terrified about having anything electric out there. I had a heat lamp fall a few years ago and set a coop on fire. Thank goodness I was home and saw it, or I would have lost a whole flock of giant cochins.



Congrats, MrsMagoo!
