Peahen hatching chicken eggs???

[Pratik1234]

Hello, can a broody peahen hatch chicken eggs, if yes how would she react on seeing the chicks instead of peachicks? Will she take care of them ?

They don't know a keet from a chick and will mother any egg they hatch out. The problem is that a chicken hen will abandon a chick around six weeks where a peahen will cover her chicks for many months.
