UPDATE on 26 March 2023: First egg hatched around noon on 26 March.
It’s been more than a month since the first egg was laid at the Hays bald eagle nest and today, 35 days later, we’re watching for a hatch.
Bald eagle eggs hatch in 34-41 days but thanks to eaglestreamer.org‘s record keeping we know that the Hays eagles hatch at the early end of that spectrum. This year’s predictions are:
Estimated hatch dates (based on 35 days incubation):
Egg 1 – 3/24/23; Egg 2 – 3/27/23.

Watch the Hays Bald Eagle Nest Camera. When the eagle rolls her eggs, look for a pip!
