Incubating Peacock Eggs - Everything you ever wanted to know and more
We go through absolutely everything you'd need to know to incubate peacock hatching eggs you bought from eBay. It is a full tutorial in the sense that these are all techniques that have worked for me and I hope they will work for you. Peafowl are much harder to incubate than chickens and require more precision. Hopefully by following these steps you will have great success. WE go through temperature settings, humidity settings, the stages of egg development and much more. When you buy hatching eggs from eBay it can be intimidating but it doesn't have to be. I have brought together insights from various sources in the hopes that this can help you. There isn't a video that covers everything but I'm hoping we got close.

Hey I have a question! I'm currently having some white peacocks hatch in our incubator since our peahens don't like to be consistent sitting on them. We have one that has made a hole about the diameter of dime, and has been pipping for about 12 hours with no progress. Is there ever a need to assist in the case of helping them hatch? Or should I take the loss on a weak peachick? I also may be worried I raised the humidity a little too late since it was at 60-65% and think that the membrane around out peachick may have dried up. If that's the case, should I mist some water on the small opening? Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply! After the first pip it can take them about 24 hours to start unzipping/fully break out of the egg. They usually rest for quite a while after pipping while they absorb the yolk. If it takes longer than 24 hours though I would try to help out if possible. It is always a risk but there are lots of videos on how to do it. I hope it works out for you!!!!
Wow good job. I am. Going to have peacocks in the Philippines.

Hi, quick question. First time doing peafowl eggs in incubator, and I added water for humidity on day 25, 2 days ago, for lockdown. It’s day 27 but humidity looks low. What do we do? Thanks in advance
@theplayfarmer9324

Hi there! How low did it get? I would open up the incubator quickly and just add some water if possible. As long as they aren't pipping you should be ok to do that. Thank you so much for watching our channel.
hi there! thanks for sharing. need your advise. what if the egg shells are so bloody ? and that the chick seems to still be attached to the shells. seems like mine comes out with the yolk sca still protruding out of the abdomen.

Thank you so much for watching! Usually chicks unzip after they have absorbed the yolk and the blood from the veins. I'm not exactly sure what I would do in this situation. Have you checked the humidity and temperature in your incubator? Is it possible those were off a bit? So sorry I don't have a better answer for you!

why is it important to stabilize the air sac before incubating?
@theplayfarmer9324
2 жыл бұрын
Thank you for checking out our channel! The reason it is important to stabilize the air sac before incubation is that once you place the eggs in the incubator you have to roll them three to 5 times a day. If you hadn't put them in there with a stabilized air sac, the air sac would likely detach and move around as the eggs roll. If the air sac isn't in the correct position at time of hatch, the chick will die. The first air the chick breathes is within the air sac so it is crucial that it be where the head of the chick ends up. Hope that clarifies! Thanks again for watching!

Buy and incubator or find someone with a broody hen. Eggs are good for hatching until around day 7, then they start to lose fertility. Some are still hatch-able until day 15 if stored correctly.
