I bought the finches about two months ago, and they have busy as little beavers making their nest since we got them. First round of eggs I pitched after a month because, well, you know . . .but this batch has hatched one so far. TINIEST little thing. I think they are feeding it, as its almost 4 days old and still among the living. They don't seem to lay their eggs all at the same time, so I guess we will have babies days apart if these other 4 are viable. It's so neat to watch them!!!
 
most birds lay an egg a day, so first hatch will be 4 days older than the 4th egg if it hatches. SOME bird breeders will remove the eggs and then put them all back together when they are done laying them. I am not a breeder but a birder lol
