first one was on the 3rd december If the rest were laid in usual order as every other day than you probably have your answer. |

one is beter than none..... .... and it gives mum n dad ..time to get used to doing things for the chick... next time you might have more eggs hatch.... dont be put off... it might just be ....she laid the other eggs..... before he mated her.. dont forget to keep the chicks feet and beak clean...also the nest box....  we all start small...... ... regards mick... |
