the unhatched egg

when we rescued the goslings  and put them and their mother into a chick run , we had one egg that hadn't hatched.
It was cool , but nothing to loose - so it went into the incubator.

and over the next 30 hours

the incubator isn't large enough to allow the gosling to stand , so the intermediate step, prior to re-introducing it back to the mother , now in the chick run  is to use the heat lamp,  and using a small plasic box, allow it to dry out and fluff up  over the next few hours.
