A friend sent some Cotton Patch eggs from her line. They hatched May 24, 2016. They are from different pens, so they will add some much needed diversity to my geese.
An egg broke in the nest, so I moved the remaining eggs to the incubator after washing. I wasn't sure they would make it, but they did fine. There are a couple of mystery goslings due to an elicit affair by a couple of geese, and some American Buffs and Gray Saddleback Pomeranians. Hatched April 13, 2016.
This year's hatch of Cotton Patch goslings is complete. Eva and Eddie had 4 girls and 2 boys this year. I love being able to sex the goslings at hatch. All goslings appear to be healthy.
