Golden Eagles will pair up after they reach adulthood at five years old. They are monogamous and it is believed that they say together for life. After refurbishing their nest, which is called and eyrie, they will lay around two eggs, but only one chick will make it to adolescence.
Golden Eagles will alternate between their nests yearly. Over the years of reuse the nest can grow to an average size of 6 ft wide and 3 ft high.
