   The chickadee reproduces
    sexually. Before they reproduce
    they make a nest 1-7 meters
    above the ground. The females
    only make the nest. Their
    nesting season is April through
    June. The black capped
    chickadees lay eggs. The eggs
    are white with dots of reddish
    brown at the larger end. When
    they lay their eggs they lay a
    clutch of eggs that is about 6-8
    eggs. Incubation lasts about
    11-14 days.
   The chickadee 12.3-
    14.6 cm, and its body
    mass grows up to 10-14
    grams. The male and
    female look alike but the
    males are slightly larger
    and longer than females.
   The chickadee responds to
    cold winter weather by poofing
    its feathers out to stay warm,
    This makes them look fatter
    than normal. Because of this
    they don’t hibernate like all the
    other birds.
   The chickadee has a
    black cap and a bib with
    white sides to its face. Its
    back is gray and the tail
    and wings are normally a
    lighter gray. The sides of
    their bodies are usually a
    tan color.
