Big Bear Eagles, Jackie and Shadow, Show Early Signs of Hatching Eggs
This morning, we’re excited to share an update on Big Bear Eagles, Jackie and Shadow. The eggs that have been carefully incubated are showing the first signs of hatching. Just one day later, more cracks appeared, signaling that two of the eggs could soon hatch.
This is a highly anticipated event as the last time one of Jackie's eaglets hatched was three years ago, a long wait for eagle enthusiasts and nature watchers. The hatching process, while thrilling, is still moving slowly, but the progress is certainly a positive sign.
Experts suggest that the hatching process for bald eagles can take several days, with the first cracks gradually leading to the emergence of the eaglets. While the eggs may not have been hatched in quite some time, it’s clear they are a priceless treasure, and wildlife watchers can hardly wait for the next step in this remarkable journey.
Rest assured, the team will continue to monitor the progress closely, and we’ll keep you updated on the latest developments with Jackie and Shadow’s growing family.
