I have an Brinsea Octagon Advance 20 incubator - which way up do I put in the goose eggs?
My first hatch two years ago was horizontal (it has an automatic turning cradle) and had a good hatch rate. Last year I did them upright. We had a poor hatch rate (but most likely due to insufficient moisture loss as most of them were dead-in-the -shell, fully formed goslings, which failed to pip
), so not sure which way up is better?
I can fit in more upright, but I would rather a few less goslings than only one or two again...
These are pilgrim geese eggs.
