After this one she had to re-arrange them in the nest to allow room for a few more!
Once they were all laid.. she "packed" them into the nest.. I could hear them "clinking and crunching" knowing she was going to break them.. she didn't.. the mother's touch!
You gotta love 'em!

After 2 1/2 - 3 hours of digging, laying and covering them up she ended up with these. Not sure if this is her 2nd or 3rd clutch this year.. her 1st year ever!
You gotta love 'em!

I guess so Barry.. you're the one the other day that said the environment here was perfect for Redfoots.
Look at the "bloodline" in these eggs.. Columbian!!!

Thank you.. I'm blessed and clueless!
Have been told by who I believe is a reliable source.. 150-180 day incubation cycle!

Not sure who laid the first 5 (1 broke) 7/30.. 3 on 8/23.. Of course we know which one that laid 8 on 9/9. How many involved in the process.. 1,2 or 3?
How do they look in the incubator? I have a folded paper towel covering the eggs which I "spritz" each night to keep humidity up on egg surface.
Opinions.. comments.. blessings???
You gotta love 'em!

'Too wet' is my opinion.
Better too dry than too wet.
