The Clutch is Set The last egg is laid - it's almost always a little bluer, can you spot it? - and the new clutch of eggs is set, exactly a month to the day after the first clutch hatched. (more usual would be five or six weeks) These eggs, if fertile (that is never a guarantee), are expected to hatch June 18th - while incubation is really set in terms of hours, usually with a canary it will be 13 or 14 days.
