Thanks Starling ,Paul, and Sammi. I can’t put into words how excited I am to finally get a nest that I can view. I am not taking it for granted and know how lucky I am. Just wish we could get nests for those of you not so lucky yet . Sue

Yes Beechnut, seems we are at that waiting bit now. Female only been off the eggs for what I guess are toilet breaks, so definitely incubating now. How many of yours are now hatched? You are at that very exciting time now. Sue

Seems the male is having a job waking female to deliver her a tit bit - is it normal for the female to sleep so soundly

It’s very strange Ann, she seems to zone out whilst she is sitting on the eggs. Then suddenly she wakes up but appears drunk for the first few minutes , stumbles around the box (almost as though she’s stiff from being in one position too long), and then flies off for a break and everything's fine. Just hope she’s ok. Trouble is, never seen it from inside to known what’s normal and what’s not Sue

Yes it’s concerning hopefully Paul or Matt will reassure you and put some explaination on it Maybe she is first time mom so learning as you goes along how to deal with incubation time
