My broody got off her eggs, so I stuck one of the EE/silkie/silkie eggs under Flashy, one of my brooding pigeons. it will be so funny if it hatches under her!

Hahahaha. I would love to see it. That would be hilarious.

I'll definitely take pics if it works.

Do you pigeon eggs get incubated at a similar time and temp as chook eggs?

 

[silkiecuddles]

Pigeon eggs are 15 days I think. I dunno exactly.
Chicken eggs take 21. The pigeon eggs were laid about a week later. They aren't fertile anyway because Flashy has no mate.

Well as long as they run similar temps and humidity it might work- no worse than a bra hatch I think.

They're both under a broody pigeon, and as the pigeon eggs won't hatch, hopefully she'll sit long enough for the chicken egg to hatch.
