which is a big clutch for a small bird typical for little hours is three or

typical for little hours is three or

typical for little hours is three or four but she's very happy very content

four but she's very happy very content

four but she's very happy very content she likes their big clutch however she's

she likes their big clutch however she's

she likes their big clutch however she's not very good at looking after the eggs

not very good at looking after the eggs and because she lays such a big clutch

and because she lays such a big clutch

and because she lays such a big clutch she actually struggles to keep them all

she actually struggles to keep them all

she actually struggles to keep them all incubated so we find it's actually much

incubated so we find it's actually much

incubated so we find it's actually much easier with her to take those eggs and

easier with her to take those eggs and

easier with her to take those eggs and give her a replacement so she still gets

give her a replacement so she still gets

give her a replacement so she still gets to sit eggs they're just not fertile and

to sit eggs they're just not fertile and

to sit eggs they're just not fertile and that pretend eggs if you like she

that pretend eggs if you like she

that pretend eggs if you like she doesn't know a difference and then we

doesn't know a difference and then we

doesn't know a difference and then we can take those eggs through that process

can take those eggs through that process

can take those eggs through that process we can incubate them safely hatch those

we can incubate them safely hatch those

we can incubate them safely hatch those chicks and then give her the chips back

chicks and then give her the chips back

chicks and then give her the chips back so as far as she's concerned the eggs

so as far as she's concerned the eggs

so as far as she's concerned the eggs have hatched and she gets her chicks so

have hatched and she gets her chicks so

have hatched and she gets her chicks so it's a way that we can help those birds
