I've never brooded goslings. I let the goose and gander raise them.
However, just from observation, the goslings are out a lot in very chilly weather and no harm done. If they get chilled, they sit underneath the wings of any adult goose that happens to be in the neighborhood.
So this is my suggestion (untested): use a large brooder with only one corner warm and a lot of room to get away from the heat. I really do not think that goslings need the kind of heat that is always recommended for chickens. They need a place to warm up occasionally. But they do not need constant heat. Set them up so they have a lot of temperature gradations to choose from.
Good luck on your hatch. There is so much excellent hatching advice from Pete, that you should have all the information you need about hatching.
