I have a few more geese questions for you seasoned geese people. One of our geese started to lay in a shed that isn't varmint proof. Something has been getting her eggs so I started to collect them . I have five now. I saw her on the nest last night and she was there this morning when I went out. Is staying for longer periods of time an indicator that she may be getting broody? I am going to try to make the shed more secure before she starts sitting so I hope she gives us a few more days. The eggs are covered in mud is this normal and can they still hatch? Also I have heard that once they pick a nest site you can't persuade them to move like chickens but can you move the family once they have hatched? We have another one who has built her nest under the woodshed. It will be much more difficult to protect those ones.
