Radisson - 2010 / Ivy & Princess
The Peregrine Chick:
This year, first egg laid the 22nd, fourth egg laid by the 23rd. We start our count from egg three, usual date the incubation begins. Incubation on average runs 33-35 days. We are on Day 32. We start hatch watch earlier than some projects because we had a female that hatched out her chicks after 28-29 days of incubation for years. And we wouldn't want anyone to miss the hatching now that we have a webcam!
Ellie:
I checked in the peregrine chic blog on the cbc opening page and after checking several pages I found that TPC saw the first egg on the 17th of Apr. and on the 22nd of Apr. there were 4 eggs and Princess and Ivy were incubating the eggs. So if the 3rd egg arrived on the 20th then today should be the 33rd day ??? If my calculations are correct(its the math you know) it could be anytime..TPC did guess this weekend. Hopes this helps Cara59 ;)
allikat:
I wish I did know the answer to that question....I will leave that up to our one and only TPC to answer that one!
However, I believe she, TPC, mentioned she thought that we might see a hatch this weekend....?

Don't they normally hatch very early in the morning? :-\ For some reason, I seem to recall that, but I could be wrong.
Kinderchick:
I think that Princess began what is referred to as "hard incubation" the first weekend in May, but I'm not absolutely certain. :-\ Allikat might know for sure.
