I've been checking on her morning and evening.  Temperature advisories here, it's been over 100 degrees past couple of days, today forecast 102.  That box must be stifling in the late afternoons.

I don't remember that this box has ever had a microphone.

That wouldn't be Xcel.

They aren't going to hatch. We believe they might have been killed by heat. Zone of death is around 104F and it got awfully hot out there.

Oh thats sad.
Yesterday - late - I saw a mouse / rat in there.
The male dealt with it.
He stood ON the eggs.
I do NOT know for sure if he brot the rodent in - or not.

Amy thank you - how sad.  I knew the heat in the box had to be just awful as we went through a couple of long lasting heat waves.
