Set eggs 4/6, EDD 4/27 & 4/28...wanna hatch with me??

Welcome crash!

I did take pics, but no internet right now. Im at my MIL's house, cant put pics on her pc as easy as on mine.

I opened the other goose egg today. Poor baby was all developed and as big as the other, but it had pink flesh sticking out on top of its head.... =-(

Lockdown for the other eggs is tonite. Good luck everyone!
 
I woke up early this morning and couldn't go back to sleep, so I walked outside, fed the big birds and looked into the Broody House...

Sammie has BABIES!!!! I could hear the peeping and Sammie was softly clucking to them, and I could see she was shuffling around, moving her feet without really moving her body...it was cute! My daughter went out there and she said she saw 3 little chick heads poking out. I went back out and only saw 1. There were 7 eggs last night, so there are probably more still hatching at this point. I don't have pics of the babies yet because it's only 62* in the coop so I'm definitely NOT lifting Sammie to see what's under her...

Here's a pic of Sammie in the Broody House:

I have PICS! Wow, those babies look nothing like their mother...how weird! I swear, Sammie is the mommy, I only have 1 bantam hen who lays those tiny eggs. But I have 4 different roosters so we'll be playing "Who's Your Daddy" for a while...LOL.

Here's 2 tiny chickie heads peeking out:

Here's a red baby with a chipmunk stripe (RIR daddy?):

How amazingly adorable is this????? I'm guessing the daddy is Lyle, RIRxWhite Leghorn:

My daughter said she saw a little black chick, but I haven't seen that one yet. That would be Phoenix's baby (Black Sizzle).
