I waited a day just to make sure that the blood and feathers I saw was the mom. She wasn't there the next day, so I took the eggs and put them in a box with a blanket, foil, a wet rag, and a heat lamp.
When I got the eggs they were cold. I just tried to look at them with a flashlight and my grandma said she saw something that might be a baby, but she wasn't sure. I also tried the water trick, but it wasn't either a float or a sink. So what should I do? Please help. Thanks.

Me again. To see life in the egg, you need a dark closet, cardboard roll from TP, and a flashlight. Put the egg on one end of TP cardboard and lit flashlight on the other. You will see how far along they are.

I don't remember the proper temp because my geese hatched their own eggs. I do remember a few things you need to be informed of. Turn the eggs several times a day. Heat-moisture are essential. When they pip (start to hatch) do not help with pulling the shell off. That makes them bleed and die. For food you will need some mash and to help, gather clean clover and cut into 1/4 inch pieces. Put water in a dish with a smaller lip. When they see you, you become mom and you will be followed. Hugs for caring. Geese are wonderful.
I found a goose nest with 6 eggs in it. My boss told me to throw them off the boat but instead, I gave 5 to my friend and one I kept.
