Female mated condors leaving dens

So, I remembered that about a week ago I was playing as a male condor and decided to multimate. I put all 5 females in different nests- 2 went into condor caves, the other 3 in fox/coyote dens.
When I went to collect all my chicks to put them in a single den, 3 of the females had gone missing. 1 from the condor cave, and the other 2 from the dens. When I tried to pick up the eggs that had been laid outside, I also noticed that apperently I was no longer the 'father' because it wouldn't allow me to pick up the eggs as a parent can. So, I was just wondering what could have caused this- I know for a fact that I had mated to all of those females, and I hadn't logged out. So why wasn't I registered as the parent?

I only know that the mother's name is written on the chick's description, not the father's.

Yeah, I believe this is something that should be corrected.

Also, when you multimate, to ensure that all your chicks will survive. You need to put EVERY female in a different cave/hole. When you leave 2 together and 1 lays eggs they will begin to attack the other females along with any of their eggs. When I must put females in the same cave I be sure to kick them out as soon as they lay or pick them up before laying before tossing them out.
