Mourning Dove seem to have left her nest with eggs unhatched??
We are a bit worried. She laid the eggs in our hanging basket on our back patio. with all the recent pool activity in our yard, they seem to have flown the coop! Is this normal? We are sad that these two little eggs will not hatch??? Is there anything we can do?
Comment I doubt it will make you feel any better, however, Mourning Doves can raise as many as 6 broods of two chicks each during a mating season.
To try to attract the birds back, you might try putting out a shallow basin of water for drinking and bathing. You could put out grit for these birds, as well. Susan
