    Apparently with chickens you can stop them going broody by raising the nest up off the ground some inches so their body temperature reduces back to normal as that sends different hormonal signals to the brain and breaks the cycle of broodiness. Maybe worth trying with your goose? I'd imagine the principles are the same.

    Has she ever fostered goslings? That's what one raptor center did for a broody eagle who keeps trying to hatch a rock by having him foster eagle chicks.

    If you want to have her raise babies you can buy fertilized ones and give them to her. Then, place a small dish of water right next to her nest and give her a bowl of food every day. That way she won't waste away.

    One guy put an ice pack wrapped in a towel under his broody hens and that did the trick. They lost their broody attitude in 2, 3 days

    When we had a a Broody Chicken we shut the door and got her out so she could just like walk outside and be with her family and friends

    You should put a couple fertilized hen eggs in there to see if she will raise the chicks that hatch.
  • When she’s broody, you should resist the urge to touch her or pet her. It stresses a mother out when her space is invaded when she is guarding her eggs.
  • You should give her a hatch baby goose that lost it’s mom I heard a story of an eagle who wanted to be a dad and he tried to hatch rocks so they replaced the rock with a eagle baby and he became famous and the goose would love it 🥰
