Iit is troubling to me that I have seen Mo leave nest duty from time to time. Just now he was gone about 10 minutes. The temp is 58 degrees. Will it affect the eggs?

Yes, Matrix, that's the one!! I would have loved to have seen that! Hopefully as the weather gets milder I can get up there in the city....by the way, I suspect you have the "hatching" days all plotted out. Care to share your hypothesis ?

I'm no good at hatch dates! :shock:

also, if eggs have chicks inside them, at this time frame in incubation, they can handle being chilled. It's usually the first week while the embryo's heart is forming that being too chilled can kill the developing embryo.

My desktop died so not able to watch cams much.

Thank you, Matrix, for your patient answer...No more worrying about the eggs! It's kinda funny - I can tell Mystic and Mo apart by behavior more than by their markings.... Mo is the restless one with the swivel head, and Mystic is the serene one - quiet, looking totally content to take care of her eggs....

Yes, he is very nervous like... :sprint

Hi Loza! Thank you for catching Mystic doing what she loves - taking care of her eggs! Do you suppose she worries about them when Mo has been on them? She sure is checking them close!

Thanks, Matrix! I love watching them wiggle and scootch with the eggs until each one is covered....

Mystic is increasing his time on the eggs...I've seen him on more today, then I've seen her. Not watching constantly though... headed to archives now to see what happened yesterday...

His Mickey Mouse ears show good in this position....

I am guessing that she is bathing. I can imagine the external parasites may be building up population on her while she is stuck incubating.

Friday will be day 32 from the third egg. We're in the home stretch.

Checking on Mystic and Mo while eating my breakfast... Mo just came in for his turn on the eggs - He did really well. Checked each one out, straddled them, sat down with 2 hanging out, but wiggled very efficiently til all were covered. Good job, Mo!
PS - no pips...

You don't mean today Friday, do you? I've got estimated hatch here for 4/25 o 26...do we have our lay dates wrong? :egg16:

I take a peek at the cam this morning and the first thing I see is a peregrine with its back to the cam, but its neck twisted clear around, looking out across his back... Good morning, Mo! Ah but then he gets back to business, hugging those eggs and giving his butt a final wiggle...Good boy, Mo!

Tsusan · **Posted:** Tue Apr 21, 2015 7:43 am

Good morning - Checked in with the nest to see what's happening....Mo is on the eggs again, and doesn't seem so "antsy" this morning. Matter o fact, at one point, somewhere around 7:15 he actually got up and turned a couple eggs! I wonder if he hears them peeping at him?
