Well I have 4 goose, 2 duck, and 17 quail eggs in my little lg right now, so I'm sure they'll fit.

With room to spare if need be.

when did you put those in??

The ducks are on day 24-25, 6 of the quail are on day 10ish, 11 on day 4, the goose eggs went in last night before I went to bed, around midnight.

The air cells are detatched in all of them, one had little bubbles everywhere. Hoping I get at least one gosling.
