3 of the 5 eggs hatched early this morning - I switched off the recorder at 1945 last night with 5 eggs intact and Meg tucked under.
At 0530 this morning there were already 3 chicks writhing about in the cup, so they must have hatched really early and close to each other timewise.
The 4th chick hatched at 0818 and I am now waiting on the 5th egg which was laid 2 days after the 4th egg, so it could be a while yet!
Although there are 2 eggs visible, one is the addled 1st egg laid way back in March.
