Didi laid 4 more eggs and hatch watch starts today. She laid this clutch immediately after her last clutch fledged and was still coming back to the Hide Out for food! The last babies still come to the trees outside sometimes but Mom is busy again on brand new eggs.

There are two hatches now. The owlets names are Beau and Scoot. They are looking for another hatch today. Hans continues to provide a good food supply to Didi and the owlets.
Sher67 9:31 AM We do not know what has happened to Hans. It is likely at this point something has happened to him because he has never stayed away from Didi and his family for this length of time. The main focus right now is Didi and the babies and taking it one day at a time This is a situation we have not had at this box before and we will have to see what happens. Ang and OCG are looking at all viable options and we will wait and see what happens. Sher67 9:33 AM chat is paused for now, thank you for understanding and see you all later
All 5 owlets are doing well and the box owners are keeping Didi and the babies supplied with food. We were discussing the menu last night as we watched Didi and her babies. Dix thought the item in the right back corner was a VERY bloated rat. I think it was a penguin. Then we focused on the item in the front left. I'll let you draw your own conclusions as it would be highly unacceptable and very unladylike and totally Un-suthun of me to elaborate on that any further than we did last night.
