Turaco Hatching at Nashville Zoo

Nashville Zoo is one of only four AZA institutions to successfully breed the Great Blue Turaco, and one of only a handful of institutions to successfully hand raise an individual. The video is believed to be the first time a Great Blue Turaco hatching has ever been recorded in a captive setting.

The father Turaco is eating the eggshells! Has anybody seen a bird do that before?

[@lazzaleppi5285]

Never seen any bird do that, very smart to save the calcium.
