Based solely on Google searches, it appears the gestation period for sandhill cranes is about 30 to 32 days. They often lay 2 eggs (alternating days) and often only 1 is fertile. There are 2 eggs being watched now (5/22/2012) that were layed on or about 5/4/2012. Parents seem to work jointly on keeping nest high and dry as the nest is in a pond and it's the rainy season so nightly both birds work most the night adding to the nest base. Then one sits on the nest, the other gone somewhere. 30 days would be 6/4... so babies soon due!
