when do robins lay eggs

Robins typically lay their eggs between mid-April and mid-August. The female usually lays one egg per day, often laying a clutch of 3 to 5 eggs. Incubation starts after the last egg is laid and lasts about 12 to 15 days. In some regions, robins may start nesting even as early as January or March, with egg laying beginning around April or May. They can have 2 or 3 broods per season, especially in the southern parts of their range. The female builds the nest and lays about 5 to 6 eggs per brood, and the parents both care for the young after hatching. Robins often lay eggs mid-morning and lay approximately one egg per day until the clutch is complete.
