You’re welcome Judy
Really happy to see this information. Thank you!
Galen, the hatched eggs are all eggs that had hatchlings make it out of them. This total includes hatchlings that made it out of the nest on their own as well as dead and live hatchlings found when we inventory the nest. Live hatchlings are the number of living hatchlings that are found during the inventory. Hope this helps break it down 😊
Curious about the stats: Why are live hatchlings (11) so much lower that hatched eggs (92)? Thanks!
