That depends on the egg and the bird as well as the climate where nesting occurs. There are a lot of variables. Lots of them. With some 10,000 bird species, no single answer will begin to cover it. Let's look at just a few birds for examples. In general, many eggs need to be incubated, kept warm by one of the parents. If one of them isn't on (or monitoring) the nest, the egg can die in hours or even minutes. In the case of the Emperor penguin, the egg must be kept on top of the bird's feet to be covered and kept warm. If the egg rolls off the feet of the parent, that parent has almost no chance of being able to get the egg back up on the top of its feet before the cold kills the embryo. It takes only minutes in the severe cold to kill the egg. A group called the megapode birds, or mound birds (or, perhaps, incubator birds), builds a large (4+ meters) mound of material and uses this to cover the eggs and keep them warm. By adding or removing material, the temperature is regulated. In good weather, the eggs may survive without care for weeks if the weather cooperates. The Egyptian plover, or crocodile bird, buries its eggs in the sand, and they stay warm there. They can be cooled by the adults by the trick of their soaking their breasts with water and pressing themselves down on the top of the buried eggs to transfer this cool water onto the sand. These eggs might survive for several days without care if the weather helps. These are just some of the ways birds care for their eggs. Mortality of the eggs will vary as widely as the type of nest and the care the bird gives the eggs as well as the weather at the nesting site. Remember that there are some 10,000 birds inhabiting almost all corners of the world. There are a huge number of variables.
A dove egg is about 14 to 17 days until hatching. others are about 21 days until they hatch.
That depends on the species of bird. A baby chick stays in a chicken egg for 21 days
well onley1 day max
It depends on the bird or animal laid the eggs. Some may stay good for days, some may stay good for months and some may stay good for years.
They stay with them and nurture them.
No, frog parents don't stay with their eggs because the eggs are laid in water and frogs cant stay in the water for too long or they will drown.
They stay in the eggs for about thirty-five days.
a)That's not how you spell caterpillar and b) They don't stay in eggs they stay in cocoons.
they stay in there egg for 3-5 days
Ocelots are born live, not in eggs. A mother is pregnant for about 80 days.
Leave them alone and stay in your place where no one can go to and lock them out
The correct term for a pregnant bird is known as "gravid" and they usually will lay eggs within a 2 to 3 day period after carrying them. These eggs will then go on to hatch within a 12 to 14 day period after the Mother's incubation starts and they will eventually leave the nest within 14 to 16 days after hatching.
Goldfish will start to eat their eggs once they have finished spawning them. They do not look after their eggs at all.
It doesn't stay. She lays the eggs and leaves them. They hatch and they scatter.
