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

This is such a stressful hatch! Lilian just turned one so this is her first hatch. So candeled all the eggs (6) last night and most had internally piped. All had movement. When I got home from work at 1:00 PM two of her eggs were 1/2 hatched but squished! She must have stepped on them and t first I thought they were dead. I picked them up and both were barely alive. So I ran in the house and stuck them in the Sportsman. I don't know if they will make it. So then I took 2 other eggs that had internally piped (not cracked outside) and stuck them in the incubator with the 2 goslings trying to recover. I left Lillian with 2 eggs. My plan is to give the goslings back after they hatch and dry off. Maybe by then her other 2 she is on will hatch.

Oh my goodness!!! I hope they pull threw!

I personally wouldn't give them back. I had a goose smoother one of the goslings I gave back because she was sitting too tightly.

I give my really stubourn mamas eggs but only a few at a time until I know they will stay on them. I have a goose due to hatch her 6 eggs on Easter!!!

I have 6 eggs in the hatcher, 2 are hatched, 2 are working their way out and it looks like the last two haven't pipped and probably wont make it. They are small eggs, I think the babies are too big?

Here is some cuteness overload. These guys went to their new home yesterday. A little sad, but I have more hatching, so that helps!

Can goslings get wry neck? I have one newborn that keeps rolling it's neck on its back then it kinda goes weak and lets it drop to the floor. Poly vi sol?

Hope the gosling is ok, i know what to do for ducks and chickens but not geese yet.

When can goslings go outside? I would like to put candy the cotton patch goose outside on the grass.
