Our owls have laid their first egg!

17 April 2026

This morning the female owl laid her first egg.

There has been a build up of prey brought in during the past two or three days by the male.

Barn owls incubate their clutch from the first egg, meaning the chicks hatch at different intervals.

Eggs are laid at approximately two and a half day intervals so we can expect the next egg later on Sunday night.
