The ruffed grouse is the official state bird.
A ruffed grouse typically lays between 8 to 12 eggs in a single clutch, which can be informally referred to as a "litter."

After hatching, the chicks, often called "cheepers" due to their peeping sounds, are precocial and can leave the nest shortly after.
