This is my first time incubating pheasants eggs. I was told that the percentage hatch rate is lower than 50%. Is this right?
what is the %hatch rate in ringnecks?

NO! Hatch rate depends on MANY factors- and are you considering the hatch rate on just fertile eggs or the hatch rate on all eggs first set.
Either way:
depends on condition of breeder birds
depends on incubation methods
depends on age of eggs before incubation
depends on humidity & temp during incubation
depends on humidity during hatch
depends on if eggs were shipped
It does not matter if they are duck, chicken, pheasant etc
One person may have almost a 100% and the next may have 0%

ok.Well i guess that sums it up then. Just some breeds are harder to hatch than others.
