At least that was the story Powell heard the next year when he visited the Shivwits area with Mormon Scout Jacob Hamlin. Two days later on August 29 Powell and his men reached the mouth of the Virgin River (now under Lake Mead) and were met by settlers fishing from the river bank. The adventurers had not been heard from in three months and were presumed dead.
Most goose eggs take from 28 to 32 days to hatch. However, it is not uncommon for them to hatch anywhere from day 26 to day 35. Goose eggs take the same temperature as chickens---99.5 forced air and 101.5 still air.
While chicken eggs take 21 days, for example, geese can take between 30 and 35 days and need a higher humidity level. Goslings are also more likely to hatch if the eggs are sprayed with water every day between days 6 and about 25, whereas chicken eggs need to be kept in humid conditions, but dry.hile chicken eggs take 21 days, for example, geese can take between 30 and 35 days and need a higher humidity level.
