for two years now my geese lay huge piles of eggs and set them for months and never hatch anything. Then last nite my husband calls me at work and says I had six geese hatch out! He said all were doing great, but one "he is scrawney and stunted and the mom kicked him out of the nest so something must be wrong with him, I'll probably have to put him down" but he put him in the incubator to stay warm. I get home and find five perfect fluffy huge baby geese, and one pitiful little bewildered duck :) I reckon mama duck wanted a surrogate mama to raise her babies! haha Janice
