Robin Egg Blue

Robins really like to put nests on top of light fixtures on porches. I bought a $60 wreath and put it on my front door for the spring that was made out of real twigs, pine needles, ground moss, and other natural things. Two days later, that wreath was picked down to the wire holding things in place and my porch light had all that wreath’s material in it shaped like a bowl! I couldn’t help but laugh. That mother bird was perched up there like a queen. I worry about the little birds when they get ready to fledge. I hope there are no more than 3 eggs up there because if there are, one or more little birds are going to get knocked out early. With that in mind, I may end up throwing some old towels down under that nest on the porch in a couple of weeks so they will have a soft landing. But, I am going to have to do something when this batch hatches to keep anymore birds from building there. I usually watch 3 nests a summer in strange places on my house. Bird watching can become addicting!

Have a robin’s nest in my backyard. Last week, there were 2 eggs. I peeked today, and they are just GONE! not hatched, not one the ground. Don’t blue jay’s take eggs? I don’t know what else could have happened.

I also have a lmap with two settings on it;Bright and extremely bright.What setting should I have it on?????

i found a robin egg on the floor in my backyard like most people i put it in a warm safe place. but i dnt think it was on the floor becuase rhe mom didnt wnt it. there was a destroyed nest a couple feet near the egg,im thinking that it fell out. what do i do????

Hi, I found a robins nest that had fallen with two eggs still inside. My husband said that they had been there for a couple of days, and he didn’t mess with them and hoped that the parents would come back for them. Well I had picked them up yesterday and brought them inside, they are cold to the touch so ill just hold them until they get warm again. I do not have any lights or incubators to keep them under so i kind of just wrapped them and cuddled them together and have them in a small birds cage. I was trying to find look up how to find out if they are alive or not and so I took them in a dark room and held a flash light up to them I did not see a bird form, all I saw was a yellow spot on the side of the egg, so I’m thinking that they may have stayed out in the sun too long and cooked. Any opinions? I really don’t want to toss them out until I know for sure that they dot have a chance.

Hi was wondering how do u tell if a blue robin egg is fertile?????

I found a Robin egg on the ground on Friday around 4:00ish my mom said that it might have fallen out of the nest Tuesday night during the big wind storm. When I picked it up I don’t remember if it was warm or not but will it have a chance to live? I brought it home and got a shoe box and then put my rabbit fur that I got a while back around it. I have kept it as warm as possible by putting my phone underneath it at night and then putting it in the sun during the day. I have had it for about three days now and it has not turned gray. Is there still a chance for it to live? Please reply asap thank you!

Okay I’ve read the posts but didn’t come across anything I’m about to talk about. A robin built a nest just outside our upper level bathroom window. She lay four eggs and all four hatched. For four days there were four babies in the nest. Today when I looked there were only 2 in the nest. We looked outside on the ground and around but no babies. The older 2 birds are still there growing and changing every day. What happened to the other two? My theory another bird took them..I thought I saw a different bird standing on the edge of the nest…could it be?

Today. I had to take a robins nest down to save an egg from being cut down… its still in its nest as of right now.. I just sent out a email to a bird rehabilitation center what else should I dom
, I don’t have a heat lamp so I wrapped up the nest in warm clothing.need helpp!

I’ve been watching a robin sitting on her 3 eggs for days now. We went away for couple hours and just saw the nest was attacked (i guess). 2 eggs on the ground. one cracked alittle and on edge of nest. I put the egg back in nest bc it was about to fall off the branch. It had a small hole in it though. I feel so bad about what happened..nest was probably in too low a spot. Anyhow now the mama is sitting in the nest. Doesn’t she realize eggs are done…or does she think the one I put back is still ok? Can the mama tell?

i need help

I found 3 robin eggs.I wrapped them with a tissue. I do not have an incubator.Do you have any ideas on how to keep them warm so they hatch?FYI i candled them and there was a baby bird in each of them.
