I'm not sure as someone quite clearly stole her nest so a chick hatched a week ago so I would of thought they are now past there date but I'm scared of throwing them just incase. Is there a way of telling if there still viable.

I understand that. They look like they would be about to hatch (if they are alive still). supposedly you can float them and if they float the are still alive. I'm not sure if you do if with warm water or not but maybe you could try it?

Think I might do that in the morning if there's no sign. Thank you.
