Egg-laying – A peek inside the Bearded Vulture captive breeding season 2021/22.
Perhaps one of the most diligent and caring parents of the animal kingdom, Bearded Vultures perform several parental duties for many months in order to welcome and rear their offspring. During this time of year, the around 40 breeding pairs out of the 174 captive birds that are housed in the Bearded Vulture Captive Breeding Network get busy. Staff will see breeding pairs play with nesting materials such as sticks and wool, construct their nest, engage in mutual preening, exhibit aggression towards neighbouring pairs and start copulating. Egg-laying typically occurs three months after nest building and anywhere between 50 and 90 days after copulations. Once they lay the egg, the pair shares responsibilities and incubates the clutch for around 54 days, and the hatchling will usually be able to fledge at approximately four months of age.
