Sebastopol Geese Thread !!!!!!!!!! SHOW YOUR PICS !!!!!!!!!!

It was not a huge difference, but I did notice it
One was 149, and the other was 151. Decent size for first of the season eggs

That's a very good size! The one Sebbie girl who is laying, is averaging around 130+ grams.

Our sebbie eggs that I have put in the incubator weigh anywhere from 155-169g on the smaller younger girls and on my older girls 178-199 grams.

Aspen, I am timing it so I can collect eggs every thirty days and want them to keep laying. I do not want too many goslings that I cannot take care of at a time. Let me think about it Aspen I quite selling goose eggs a few year ago because of the rough treatment breaking eggs and super low hatch rate. I do not like selling eggs and then people get awful results becuase of the treatment through the P.O.

Those are so big eggs, Barb! Jealous! Three of my white Seb girls will be four this summer, I think, I'm curious to see how big their eggs will be. Just let me know, Barb! : )

Or you know, you could always hatch out a bunch of goslings and sell them too.

Some big eggs! Mine went into the fridge. I have a question, I have yet to set up any breeding pens (I know Im a little behind schedual) But if I do get them set uo by next week would it be too late to waite the 30 days to make sure they will be pure, then start hatching the eggs by mid late march? or is that too late to hatch?

poultry, so far every single egg the girls have laid for me went straight into the 'bator. Mine haven't be separated 30 days yet, either. I'd go ahead and throw'em in the 'bator.

NO, that is not too late for hatching eggs. This is why we take keep eggs the away from the sebbiess girls to promote them to keep laying. They can lay up until the end of May if you keep taking the eggs away from them. Then if you want them to hatch a clutch just leave them keep the eggs until they go broody. They do not go broody until they have a full clutch.

You do not have to wait 30 days. 2 weeks maybe. If you wait too long there may not be many eggs left to work with.

You only need to wait about a week after you seperate the geese.

If the birds are laying now, by the end of March they will be almost done and you won't have much to hatch. Fertility on the males may also wane towards the end of the season.
