msdolittle:
When is the expected hatch date?
Elaine L:
Oh, I do so hope that they can put a plan into action and it works out, not only for the eggs, which are so close to hatching, but for the female. The male is so dedicated, but he looks exhausted, and he is not spending much time looking for food, so he must be very hungry.
susha:
Thanks for the update Kitten. I'm sure there are many folks who are following this story closely and hoping for the best for this family.

Great River UPDATE from Amy she posted for all to see at RRP
Kitten, I replied to your message but wanted to post so everyone knew. Mom is missing. Bob called around yesterday to try to find an incubator, and is headed up Monday with quail for the male. About five years ago Lolo, the female at Horizon, was injured and couldn't fly to the nestbox, but could flutter well enough to keep away from any people. Bob supplied quail to the plant manager, who put a quail out for Lolo and the male everyday. He incubated the eggs successfully while she healed. Eventually, she healed well enough to return to the nestbox and the eggs survived her absence.
We may try doing something like that again. I'll keep everyone posted.
