Pictures of the new mom and babies pleeeeease!! Congratulations! Sounds like your egg eater may have just been cleaning up the nursery a bit. She must have been pretty hungry from brooding so long.

Thankyou, I will try to take pics but could be difficult till she is walking them around as she is nested between a water tank & the house under a tree fern. At the moment I have supplied her with food & water as well as chic starter & water for the teeny weenys as she still has 4 eggs & is insisting on sitting on them. There is no grass there for the goslings. How long should I let her sit ? I have no idea how she managed to get that yolk on the top & back of her head ! It is quite smelly !
