breeding

[Matty]

My FHH laid her first egg yesterday,
she and her life long buddy are
4 years old. I'm keeping my fingers
crossed that he's done his bit and the
egg is fertile. Hopefully there will be
more to come in due course.
Wasn't too optimistic as this is the
first time we have put them together
over the moult. Although they are
flown as a regular cast.
she's looking very attentive around
the egg at the moment and all is
looking well
Will keep you posted matty

I'll do that, although, we are going to
keep a chick each if successful and fly
them as a cast with parent birds but i
will let you if any extras though.
