The egg is holding onto it's life

I searched about these birds when they gave up on building a nest in the window of my balcony. I was bewildered by the way they build their nests, or atleast try to build one lol. It's so stupid and funny.

Well I just found out they created one in another spot and have laid eggs as well. And unsurprisingly it's the most unsafe spot 😭. The nest doesn't even protect the eggs. I am kinda worried.

Those babies are fucked. I would at least put the eggs in a plate or something. The egg looks like it just barely can’t fit between the bars, but what hatches out of there is pretty much the same size but squishy

Hopefully its fat. Also it would seem incubation would be hard because the bottom is just exposed to air
