Experts say California bald eagle eggs may never hatch

The U.S. Forest Service says the eggs most likely contain dead offspring, although they are still being attended by their parents, Jackie and Shadow.

MONROVIA, Calif. — Experts say two California bald eagle eggs have passed their normal incubation time and may never hatch. 

The San Gabriel Valley Tribune reported the eggs in a nest at Big Bear Lake have been seen daily on streaming video from a camera positioned at the nest. 

The U.S. Forest Service says the eggs most likely contain dead offspring, although they are still being attended by their parents, Jackie and Shadow.

A San Bernardino National Forest official says bald eagle eggs hatch in about 35 to 38 days, but the Big Bear eggs were laid more than 40 days ago.
