How long do baby eagles remain in the nest?
Actually, baby eagles, or eaglets, stay in the nest until at least 11-12 weeks of age. The parents feed the babies until they leave the nest permanently. Even if the eaglets can fly well, they quite often keep coming back to the nest or stay in the area while the parents continue to feed them. Only occasionally will the parents ‘kick a baby’ out of the nest. Even when they do, they still care for them until they finally leave permanently.
