The 5 eggs I took from my nesting hen were placed in the bator it's still early yet I'm guessing but no veining in them either. That makes 9 eggs total and nothing.
Wondering why that would be.

is there any trick to make peahen broody....?

I hope I can find some help on this page. My husband works for a park where they have a ton of peafowl. He's noticed a momma on a nest for a few weeks or more now. Today a terrible thing happened. A stray dog got ahold of momma and killed her and a new born hatchling. He was able to save one chick and grabed the 2 remaining eggs. I candeled them and one definitely has a baby inside. I can see movement. But the air cell seems BIG and saddle shaped. Luckily I had my incubator already set up since I just hatched quail. Can anyone give me any advice? I have my incubator set to 91.5 (seemed like that was the right lock down temp for peafowl) and the humidity is at 73%. I have never hatched peafowl so I am clueless!!

I've never thought to weigh mine... I know they do that for emu eggs since you can't see inside, but most of the time you can see into pea eggs to tell development. I'm about to set a dozen or so, I could weigh them weekly and find out, if someone doesn't know offhand? I'd be interested to know the answer, so I might anywayHow much weight should a Pea egg lose during incubation?
