[URGENT] Help with broody goose hatching goslings!!!

[Miss Lydia]

Just be careful not to startle them or time them up that’s when goslings get injured or trampled to death.

She'll bring them out probably tomorrow once they have recovered from hatching. Id give them a chance Most all geese make excellent parents and the whole gaggle helps. Congrats on the goslings.

Nah I believe I already gave them enough of a chance lol, they literally almost killed them 3 times now... just waiting for the brooder to warm up, the female can’t seem to keep them under her while she sits on the other 3 eggs and they just keep roaming around the coop with the males who risk stepping on them every time they stand, and one even managed to get under the coop’s door and he was met by an angry drake who pushed him back in lol, plus it’s not safe because even tho they’re fenced in the dogs sometimes manage to jump the 6 foot fence and they’re not exactly kind to animals smaller than a chicken. I’ll be a lot more relaxed by keeping them inside where I can look after them safely.

Yeah I really wanted to give her the chance of raising them but man this is stressful and I’ve had a problem with rats recently too, so maybe next year she’ll be a better mother now that she has some experience plus she’s gonna meet the goslings again soon since I’m keeping all the females

Definitely, it’s gonna be a bloodbath lmao, I’ll get my dad to help me, gonna use my motorcycling gear to fend them off lmao

Once mine are around 3 weeks old I give them to the adoptee parents after taking them out daily for supervised visits.
