House sparrows use twigs, grass, feathers and even bits of trash to construct their nests. They typically lay a clutch of 3 to 7 eggs, with the female and male taking it in turns to incubate them for around 11 to 14 days.
After hatching the chicks will spend roughly 14 to 16 days in the nest, growing and developing under their parents care. Once they are ready the young sparrows leave the nest and begin their independent journey in the world.
