Let's have a gosling hatchalong!

My first batch of geese last year went pretty good. 9 out of 14 hatched, not bad. My second attempt this year, is just half over and im stressing about the one cracked half way through incubation. The wax seems to have sealed it.
On a better note, i turned my new pair(parents of the eggs in the bator) out for the first time. They are staying close and look so cute walking around in the yard with the chickens. LoL people have been slowing down to look too, guess its cause there havent been geese here in 25+ years.
 
Hatching day for my 3 Sebbie eggs! They were all pipped last night, and I woke up at 3 am to check...nothing...7 am...baby Gaga was out and stumbling around! So stinkin' cute!
the other 2 are working on it as I write...


I"ll get better pics in a while...
I don't want to open it now.

I'm so sorry for the one you lost.

I'm quickly learning that geese are trickier to incubate and hatch than many other bird types. And I had to choose that bird to incubate as my first time incubating? Smack my head. I hope the rest thrive!!
I did the same thing last year... now I have a hard time with chickens because you set them and done till lock down

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww In theory I would love Sebbies. They wouldn't love our climate though haha! These are SO darn cute!
 
Congrads on all the new hatchs of goslings to everyone!!! GO BABIES.

I have sold all my 2 different hatches. Now waiting for the weather to get warm enopugh to ship them off. Growing like weeds let me tell you. Demanding little brats. Boy do they like celey chopped up fine! The older ones I give a chunck and they paly with it and chew it down.

Have been checking on Ginger and her eggs. Guess beacuse it has been colder here it will take longer to hatch them. I thought I seen a pip on one of the eggs. Hers were due to hatch April 2nd. Better late than never.

I have 6 eggs in the digital incubator.

Have 12 eggs in the other incubator.

Happy hatching everyone!
 
YEAH for babies

My first hatch went horribly. All three died at different stages of pipping, so no 2013 goslings for me yet. :( On the bright side, I have plenty more eggs developing in the bator, so I hope the next scheduled lockdown goes better.

SO SORRY!

I'm with ya hun. I'm not having the best season either. I do have one happy healthy baby so far but lost three others.
