Hi everyone it’s my first time ever incubating chickens and everything is going fine but 5 days ago my dog scared a pheasant who was laying on eggs and After 2 days of then laying alone we decided to put them in the incubator with the chicken eggs. But In 1 day the chickens go into lockdown but it’s only day 3 for the pheasant eggs and I don’t know if I can turn then in the lockdown time or if they will die:( does anyone have any tips bc I only have 1 incubator. Do you think they can survive it?
 
If the pheasant eggs were left alone for two days they are dead, sorry.
I did some candeling today and I think there may be some veins. The first photo is from the day I found them and the other from today:)

They do look like they are developing. Are you sure they were incubated abandoned for two days? If they have not been incubated then they would have been fine.
 
Yes all 11 eggs hatched 2 died but there are still 9 pheasants that are 2 week Old😊
Awesome! I don’t know if you are interested in pheasant/chicken hybrids, but it was talked about raising them together so they are more likely to breed. That’s how I found this thread, I am thinking about trying to time the hatch so the pheasants and chickens come out together. Here’s the thread https://www.backyardchickens.com/posts/25752558/ if you are interested. Anyways that’s great that they hatched, I hope you enjoy them!
