I have a hen and a rooster ringneck pheasant. The hen has just started laying eggs about a week ago. I live in south Florida so i just put some pineneedles laying flat for bedding and put 3 of the 4 eggs on the pineneedles. Will she sit on them? Do i need an incubator? I don't have an incubator, what are best for cheapest price? Help?!?!!? How long until they hatch when she sits on them? This is her first year laying eggs.

Thanks
 
Pretty sure she will, but pheasants like to hide their nest so if you can provide something so she will be out of the way, not be seen, she will like it better.
 
You can get a broody hen they are dependable, and I have had them raise, ducks and chicks and turkeys, even at the same time. Chickens are calmer than pheasants, and actually make the chicks calmer too.
