Jackie and Shadow Incubate Two Eggs in Second Clutch at Big Bear

Viewers can follow continuous incubation on the nonprofit’s livestream during the roughly 35-day wait for potential hatching.

Overview

  • After losing their first clutch in January to ravens, the bald eagle pair is now tending a replacement clutch of two eggs.
  • Jackie laid the first egg on Feb. 24 and the second on Feb. 27 at 5:55 p.m. camera time, according to Friends of Big Bear Valley.
  • No third egg was seen by March 2, so the second clutch may be complete at two.
  • Bald eagle eggs typically require about 35 days of incubation before hatching.
  • The Big Bear Eagle Cam run by Friends of Big Bear Valley offers a 24/7 view of the nest, and the pair successfully fledged Gizmo and Sunny in 2025.
