Should I sell my Sebbie eggs? **More pics on page 15**:)

I wouldn't lower the price. It's the going price for them. I found your Craigslist advertisement. I'll think about it. Maybe I can come up with another idea for you.

My females sre from the holderread stock. The lady I got my gander and white female from says she does not keep track of the bloodlines, that she just cares about breeding for certain traits in the adults. So I guess I will never know their bloodlines!

Thank you! I don't plan on lowering my price, these suckers are hard to hatch! I told my husband that we are going to have 100 geese breeding next year, he did not find that funny!

Mine went in the bator today! Fingers crossed for a successful outcome!

They are just precious!!!! I wish I could afford a couple eggs! So what was your hatch rate?

I am not good on percentages, but I set 15 eggs and got 7 goslings!YAY

Your percentage rate is figured out by how many were fertile all together. So you set 15, were all 15 fertile? Did you get blood rings? Did you have any DIS?

If you set 15 but only those 7 were fertile, without any blood rings, without any DIS, then you would have 100% hatch rate.

Now right now I set 25 eggs. Those are including the ones I got from you.

2 of the ones from you were clear/infertile.
1 blood ring
1 DIS
2 of mine were clear.

4 of the eggs don't count because they were clear, they never started to develop. But the one with the blood ring and the DIS does count toward hatch rate because they were, at one point, starting to develop.

Do you get it this far?? Now I don't have a hatch rate yet because no one has hatched, lol. But I'll figure out my hatch rate when they hatch. But I'm already off to a negative start because I had both a blood ring and a DIS.

Now hopefully you're head's not spinning too badly. (I'm not smart really but because I've been breeding parrots so long, I know the answer to this. LOL)

I set 15, two were clear and three had blood rings. Seven hatched.

I am so shocked at how fast these little guys are growing! I know I shouldn't be because I saw it with mine last year, but gosh it's crazy how fast they grow!

70% hatch rate, Patty.

Tonight one of my Pekin ducklings broke through the air cell. The Pekins are due the same time as the one gosling so this is a good sign!
