Eggs hatch 17 to 18 days after laying. Mom and Dad take turns sitting on the eggs and then staying with the chicks after they hatch. Both parents feed them. Ours are now 8 days old. They are getting their feathers but not big or strong enough to fly. I was very concerned Sunday night/Monday morning because the babies were left alone all night. But Mom came and fed them Monday morning before I left for work. The parents are staying fairly close, but they aren't spending as much time in the nest. That might be because the chicks are getting a good coat of feathers and not as much down.
