(I know, I know, we shouldn't have taken them out but my husband wanted to candle the older one and it is indeed fertile!)

This is my first batch of baby birds.. ever! We're so excited.

lol Im thinking its just a little bit to early to candle the eggs being that you just found the first one yesterday I would say wait at least a week and you will surely see something more then just yoke in theere if they are fertile

I've too had eggs with different sizes earlier but not any more. You should candle the egg when the egg is between 5 to 8 days. how do you candle. I use a penlight spot light torch.

Update..


One of the eggs is fertile (Which is good because they're first time parents).. and our Chinese owls laid an egg too! But just one.. it's been about two days and nothing else has happened. We're not sure if it's fertile so we switched it with Peter and Annabelle's empty egg and we'll see in a few days. The babies are due on the 22nd (I think). We're really excited!

Baby!




This is what I found when I woke up this morning! I think Annabelle and Peter will be really, really, really good parents. (Unlike our Chinese owls)
