Hi, I usually incubate and hatch chicken eggs,but at the moment have a Ebden goose egg in the incbator with my chickens eggs. I am not 100% sure ,but I would assume that a developing gosling in an egg is similar to that of a chicken egg. To tell if the gosling is still alive or not,use a very bright lumin flashlight to candle the egg. Make sure you do it in a very dark room. Depending on how long the egg has been incubating,you should see a dark mass inside of it. There should be movement. Oh yes, I almost forgot to mention...when candling the egg, place the flashlight on the biggest end and make sure that only the egg receives the light of it(not shining through your fingers etc). If your gosling is alive inside of the egg, it is amazing to watch(sometimes catching a glimpse of a foot or beak). Keep in mind, it takes 28-30 days for a goose egg to hatch.
Good Luck !!!!

∙ 11y agoThere are several ways to see if your goose egg is dead, or still. The preferred method is to crack the egg open slightly and check for signs of life manually, but the otherwise you can send it through an MRI. The MRI will show whether it is dead or alive, but may cause damage to the goose if it is alive. It may cause cancer and in severe cases, death.

∙ 13y agoall ducklings should hatch at the same time so the ones that don't are the dead ones.

∙ 13y agoThrough smell.. When its unpleasant, it is actually dead. But if it doesn't smell unpleasant,it is really alive.......

∙ 13y agoYou can shine it under a light and if you see any fetus or even a "spiderlike" red shape in the egg, it's alive.
Otherwise it's probably dead.

∙ 11y agoOk so first your going to want to get a light , then shine it on the egg , and if it has a (spiderlike) red oval/circle then it's alive.. probably, other than that it's most likely dead:(
