Question
I found yesterday 2 pigeon eggs on my balcony so I pick them up and I put them in a little box beside a lamp.And if I put my lamp on,would it hatch?

Answer
Hi Lilianna,

It is difficult to say if they will hatch. If you sit in a dark room and carefully place a flashlight behind one of the eggs, can you see any blood vessels? The eggs must be kept at a certain temperature and humidity and must be turned at specific times of the day, in which only an incubator can provide. I don't think a lamp alone will be sufficient.   Let me know what you see!

Thanks,
Stacie
