Title: goose nest in the wrong place!!!
Post by: billy_wiz on June 02, 2015, 08:30:09 am

I have a pair of geese and at last she is starting to go broody, sitting on the nest now, only problem is the nest they've built is outside of their hutch, do I now move the eggs in the hutch?

Many thanks for any replies. :thumbsup:

Wait 'til dark then pick up goose, someone else pick up eggs and put into shed on a good nest of straw, plonk goose on nest. She will probably make a lot of noise and fuss but shut the door and leave her to it. Put arnica  on peck bruises :D
