It is Good Friday for Easter and my zeb baby decided to come out of the nest for the first time! He/she is beautiful :) Unfortunately he/she is the only one, seems I lost the other two :(

Congrats on the fledgling :) . Most of the time the oldest baby will fledge first. Are you able to see into the nest??? The others might not be ready to venture out yet...

I'm pretty sure there is only one coz previously I could hear two or three of them in the nest and then I no longer heard multiple chicks, only one. When the parents feed the chick there is only distinctively one sound. Then this morning only one has come out.

Newbie question about fledglings - the baby has gone back into the nest after a quick visit to the outside world and hasn't come back out again so far this morning. Is that normal? I thought the baby would have stayed outside for longer. Perhaps it was too overwhelming!
