Considering Getting Some Peafowl...

Thread Starter 

I have been considering getting some peafowl eggs and hatching them. I have some questions:

Would I be able to incubate peafowl eggs with a broody chicken?

How loud are peafowl?

How often do they lay?

Any other advice or information would be nice, too. I am able to get fertilised eggs from a local poultry/fowl farm.

I won't be on much at all anymore. I'm WAY too busy with school and such. If you wish to contact me, PM me and I will reply as soon as I can.

Have you ever wondered how a hen can lay an egg every day?

Yes you could hatch them under a broody chicken and I think the males can be pretty loud at times. Maybe someone else can help I haven't ever had any but I'm getting some eggs soon to hatch.Btw there is a peafowl section you might get more replies there.
