Generally 2 eggs are laid and hatch. If there is not enough food the stronger one will kill the smaller or weaker one. Many times that is not the case and both live to fledge. There are many with 3 eaglets that survive past fledging. There are 3 confirmed clutches of 4 eaglets have been raised and fledged.
Fledge means to fly away from the nest.
Clutch means the eggs laid by the female.

The bald eagle is endangered The bald eagle is currently not on the endanged species list. Although it once was, it has made a remarkable comeback.
Yes the breed have babies (called eaglets) once a year

No. They were once endangered, but now have rebounded nicely, and are listed as Least Concern.
Bald eagles fertilize internally. After mating, the female eagle stores the male's sperm in her body, which allows her to fertilize her eggs internally before laying them. Once fertilized, the eggs are laid in a nest and incubated until they hatch.
Keep pollutants out of our waterways. Fish that eagles feed on store many of these chemicals in their bodies, and when the fish are eaten by the eagles, the poisons enter their bodies. Eagles once became endangered because of that very thing, but since certain pesticides like DDT have been banned, the bald eagle has made an amazing comeback, and is no longer an endangered species.

The bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocophalus) is native to North American and was once found from central Alaska /Northern Canada all the way down to central Arizona and the Gulf of Mexico. Granted, its range has been greatly reduced. Being that their diet is primarily fish, they almost always roost near open water.
Bald eagles have a life cycle that begins with egg laying, typically producing one to three eggs per clutch, which hatch after about 35 days. The chicks, known as eaglets, are dependent on their parents for food and care for about 10 to 12 weeks before fledging. Once they leave the nest, young eagles continue to rely on their parents for several months as they learn to hunt and survive independently. Bald eagles can live up to 20 to 30 years in the wild, undergoing molting and reaching sexual maturity around 4 to 5 years of age.
Chickens are domesticated for food production and have been selectively bred for generations. Bald eagles are protected by law and their populations were once threatened due to habitat loss and hunting. This has led to a difference in their respective population sizes.
