Setting 28 Rare Eggs Now : )

[TommyVT05]

Today,

I got 22 rare eggs from a friend. When they hatch out, I will let you know what they are. Its gonna be a suprize. Hehe. They aren't bantams, not layers, not longtails, no meat birds...

Can you guess?

Haha

Anyways, I also have 6 BBR Onagadori eggs in there too and 1 Golden Pheasant egg. 1! <---She laid only 1 in 2 weeks...WAT???

Dunno whats wrong...

Anyhow...my last (first time) hatch was 100%. 25 Chicks! Hope this will result the same too!!!

Can't wait!

Thanks...

Does anyone here have prior knowledge of incubating Pheasant eggs? I wonder if the temp and stuff is the same as chicks...just longer hatch date?

[TommyVT05]

I read from an earlier post that the temp is the same for Pheasants and Chickens and the HUMIDTY is same too.

My last hatch, I used only 35-45% HUM and got 100% hatch, and since the page posted there shows the same for both species...is it OK for same HUM. for both things?

Here ya go, Tommy...Incubation Chart

I kept the humidity at 60% for the first 19 days, then raised it to 80% for the last 3 days. Temps is the same as chicken chicks, 99.5.

Good luck with your hatch and can't wait to learn what the surprise is!

I use the same for chicken and pheasants. good luck on your rare eggs.

 

[TommyVT05]

Oh yeah?

Hummm...the hum right now is about 40% +/- 5%. Thats good for chickens and if pheasants can do it, thats SUPER! I can't go up to 65% because chickens won't do good there...

So hard!
