Not sure if this is true or not, but I was told that the first few eggs that a goose lays every spring are not fertile, has anyone else been told this or know is this is true.

if they are like chickens, they may lay a few yolkless ones. My seramas, when they first started to lay, gave me yolkless, then the next few with yolks were super fertile

so we'll just have to wait and see whats in store for this one
