A friend just emailed offering me a peafowl egg to incubate for free. She said she doesn't know about fertility but the hen was with a male. I have only ever hatched chicks and duck eggs are being incubated now...what are some things to consider if I do take the egg? What would the temp/humidity need to be? thanks in advance!

Well thanks to no advice....joking....I went ahead and picked up the egg....and while at the location the pea hen laid another! Two times the nervousness now...

Well I don't know anything about incubating peachicks. But I will keep my fingers crossed for you

There was talk about hatching peachicks in the August hatch along
I have only hatched chickens but It would be worth a shot the pea chick was cute that sumone hatched!
Good luck!

Well if I had seen this post before you decided to take the eggs I would have played the little devil on your shoulder and told you to take them!!! That sounds like fun! Lets us know how it turns out!!
