Scrub jays typically build their nests in dense shrubs or low trees, often using a variety of materials such as twigs, grass, and leaves. The female usually constructs the nest, creating a cup shape that provides a sheltered environment for the eggs. After laying 3 to 6 eggs, she incubates them for about 16 to 18 days until they hatch. The parents actively care for the chicks, feeding them and protecting them from predators until they are ready to fledge.
