Very excited to say we have 23 nests so far 3 with eggs. all but one cavity in the new rig occupied(7 of 8 gourds all 8 oversized compartments)
The original set up about 30feet away has 5 of 6 gourds occupied three have eggs and 2 of 6 compartments occupied. I’m very happy with the number of pairs
Had 11 last year 23 so far this year.

23 is a good number! That's a good start to your season, going to be exciting for sure. Wish you all the best.

17 nests with eggs two of which have 6 eggs each.
Still some complete nests without eggs.
I did have one nest where the eggs were scattered I replaced in nest. Will wait and see. I suspect SY interference
