Doing laundry I hear something rustling in the vent tube. I pull the hose and I got a nest with 3 eggs in there. I need to get some vent cages for the outside now but what do I do with the eggs? They have gone through a few drier cycles, hard cooked now? I feel bad :(

Ick to birds. I'd have put my cats on them.

Toss them in the trash?

Crack them open and see what's inside.

Had that happen once many years ago. I felt bad too, but not much you can do after the fact. I would not toss them in the trash; I would put them in the nearest woods so they could at least be food for something else.

Put out in the woods for nature to recycle.
Parents will build a new nest and will lay another clutch of babies.
Birds are really amizing, so wired to replicate their species!
I once got a "rescue" call to remove a nest from the tongue of a huge boat trailer. Never knew what kind of bird could have built such a nest so far into that square piece of metal!
The very nature of the location was doomed to fail to begin with.

Found this on mine over the weekend. Havent decided on what to do yet

Hence the term "bird brain".

I stuff cats in my dryer vent. Keeps the birds out.

What are the chances if I move the nest, the parents will abandon it?

I was thinking about moving it to the next boat over. They never seem to use it. :whistle:
