Goose eggs take between 28 and 35 days to hatch and by the end of the incubation period, the goose will have become run down so it is important to take note of the date that she starts sitting so that you can intervene if she is still sitting after this time on non-viable eggs.
They sit on the eggs for 12 to 14 days. The female usually does all the incubating. Even in good weather, she rarely leaves her eggs for more than 5 to 10 minutes at a time.
