How long does it take for a woodpecker to lay eggs?
Woodpeckers are birds that breed in the spring, and the timing of their egg-laying varies depending on the species and location. In North America, most species of woodpeckers lay eggs between March and May, with some species laying eggs as early as February or as late as June. The female woodpecker typically lays one or two eggs per day, and the clutch size varies from two to seven eggs per nest. The eggs are incubated by the female for about two weeks, and the young hatch about a week after hatching. The young woodpeckers are fed by both parents and fledge from the nest about a month after hatching.
