The eggs of the White-cheeked Drongo vary from a blunt to a 

 pointed oval shape and are without gloss. The ground varies from 

 cream-colour to pale salmon-pink, and is spotted and blotched, 

 mostly at the broad end, with chestnut and underlying lilac or 

 lavender. The markings on some eggs are large and blotchy, on 

 others small, roundish, and well-defined. Numerous specimens 

 measure from '85 to 1-04 in length, and from '7 to '75 in breadth.
