    Geese sharing nest. Should I let them or separate them?

    I noticed today that one of my geese went broody on a clutch of about 10 eggs. I noticed later in the day that a different goose was sitting on the eggs. I closed them all away for the night but I'm a bit concerned. Should I separate the broody goose?
