Bea and Jasper's third chick, FTF, hatched today at 1:40pm.
As a pair, Bea and Jasper have produced 41 eggs with 17 chicks fledging since 2011.
Jasper brought in a small fish as the chicks had a little breakfast. Hoping he catches another fish soon as we anticipate rain in about two hours.
Not sure if the egg has the beginnings of a pip or if the egg is just scratched. The chicks process of breaking open the eggshell is referred to as pipping.
The pair, Bea and Jasper still have their three eggs which should hatch sometime this week or next as May 7th will be the 35th day since the first egg was laid (April 2). The second egg was laid April 5th and the third egg on April 8th.
Below is a photo of Jasper incubating the eggs as he previously brought a fish to Bea.
