Wild Pheasant egg with turkey eggs...How will this go?

[galstew1]

My little brother found a wild pheasant egg the other day, so I put it in with a batch of turkey eggs. I don't know how the hen will react or if the other poults will peck it to death. I'm hoping it is female so it won't get into fights with toms and die or get injured. Do any of you know if this will work out, and is it better to have a female or male?

well if hatches it will be way smaller then the turkey poults so more then likely it will get smashed.

Also incubation period for most pheasants is 23 days and I believe turkeys is 28 days.
