My Goslings are Hatching!!!

SORRY TO HEAR THAT.Sorry to read that.
The best investment is a digitally controled incubator. It will adjust and that sort of thing wont happen.

This morning I am blessed with one little gosling with a swollen shut eye. He will get some polysporin and I'm off to the dollar store for a mirror to keep him company!

Arctic, now that a certain person has graciously loaned me a Brinsea Octagon I can incubate and hatch in two different incubators, thus making the whole process simpler. Thank-you!

Sorry to hear that Sue, sad when the little ones die. But nice you have one, and hopefully since you are still turning eggs you will have a friend or two for it soon.

well that person must be truly wonderful and amazing and maybe deserving a nice cake or something. Chocolate, with cherries.

hopefully there will be more goslings soon to keep it company

Salt of the earth, Arctic, that's all I can say, Salt of the earth!

Chocolate and cherries...hmmm.... a suitable reward.

Aww so sad to lose them when you were so excited I was so excited for you I hope the little trooper pulls through for you though. I had a hatchery duckling last year with a swollen yucky eye and after a couple days of polysporin eye ointment in the morning and evening it healed up just fine and is out laying me yummy eggs now I wasn't sure what was wrong with it so I'd separated it and made sure it got to the food and water (with poulvite) and in a couple days it pulled through so I'm hopeful for you I'm looking forward to hearing how many goslings you get in your next hatch

He has his eye open now and it doesn't look too bad. I will continue with the polysporin. He cheeps happily at me whenever I peer in. The nekts set are due to hatch april 4. They have the whole incubator to themselves, so when it is lockdown, I can keep the old incubator closed more easily.

Congratulations Sue on your little guy. Sorry the others didn't make it.
