Female birds are generally larger than male birds, and male birds usually have more feathers and decorations.
Extended data:
Hummingbirds breed during the nectar-rich period. Each nest lays 2 eggs, which are white oval with dull surface. Because some hummingbirds lay eggs in other nests, there will be more than two eggs in each nest, and the interval between laying eggs is 48 hours.
The size of eggs ranges from 8× 1 1 mm of bees to12× 20mm of giant hummingbirds, with an average weight of 0.4-1.4g. The incubation period is usually 16- 19 days. The brooding period is 23-26 days.
Newborn chicks develop late and have no hair, so they can't open their eyes to regulate their body temperature. Female birds are fed nectar and arthropods twice an hour, and the chicks can control their body temperature after about 7- 12 days of feeding. When chicks are plump enough to leave the nest, they are still fed by females 18-25 days.
