my male has started breeding the hens. should i be expecting eggs soon. all three or just over a year old.

My gander started mating my goose about two weeks prior to her first egg, which she laid November 30th. She has laid an egg every other day since then: I have 4 going in the incubator tonight.

I have no idea how long or how many eggs she will lay: It is my first year being owned by geese. I also have no idea how many eggs to expect, since I have read everything from 15 to 70 for my breed.

I got 1 egg from a white Chinnese 7 month old last Tue , but nothing else yet, and she made her nest and laid it in free range which isn't near safe enough to set and when I moved her she quit the egg .

My Chinese Geese are about 7 months old and I have gotten about 15 eggs from my female so far. I noticed that she buries them in the bottom of the hay that is in her laying crate......They are yummy~!!! I did notice my male trying to breed her a week ago I just think they are not interested in raising a family just yet.

I set up large dog carriers for them this weekend. Hopefully in the next 2 weeks, mine will start laying.
