These two babies are different size, so there are a Big Baby and a Small Baby. There is not bonking as I've seen. The babies have eaten side by side and it goes well. Looks like the parents are somehow uncertain when they feed, maybe first time parents?
Jackie awakens to check on the eggs and baby eaglet chirps from inside the egg! This little one has a lot to say and just might take after it's mama. Volume up for this one

15.07 Jackie came to take over, Shadow didn't want to get up,
Jackie had to "convince" him, she nudged him twice on the neck
15.53 the little beak of the hatchling is visible upright, but no movement and i couldn't hear any chirp since hours
Edit:
15.22 the little beak was already in the exact same position, when Jackie was up at 15.22.
So, no movement on the hatchling at all in half an hour while Jackie was incubating and got up again at 15.53.
Meanwhile the chat on the YT live stream is down. Earlier someone wrote in a comment "a talon pierced the egg". I don't know if that is true, i haven't seen it myself.

16.25 i thought i saw a tiny movement on the crushed eggshell in front of the other egg,
but it could also be my tired eyes from long, strained looking at the screen
(and probably the wish to see a movement)
18.15 Jackie got up, took a step aside of the deep bowl and only the other egg is visible
18.16 the "white" on the left of egg2 is only a down feather blowing in the wind
Let's wait and see tomorrow. (i'm too tired now)

Poor hatchling
YT info: "1st egg laid on February 8th, the 2nd egg laid on February 11th. Egg #1 started the hatching process,
but we are sad to say, it doesn't look like he survived 3/19/21"
I'm so sorry for Jackie and Shadow and all the hope and prayers go out for egg2. They so much deserve to have at least one eaglet after all they went through.

YT-info: 3/20/21 Update: We are sad to report, after egg 1 began to hatch, it appears that sometime during the day on 3/19 the eaglet passed away. Egg 2 is still in the nest and being cared for by the parents. Egg 2 will be at 37 days old later this evening.
