Can a peacock breed with a turkey?

Can a peacock breed with a turkey?

Peafowl are more closely related to chickens than to turkeys, and they can’t interbreed with chickens either. No. They are different species.

Can you put eggs in the incubator at different times?

So you might think, “Why not add eggs to the incubator at different times?” And this is a great idea, except for one thing: two to three days before hatching, an egg should not be turned. This would also be difficult to control with eggs at different stages of growth in the same incubator.

Can you incubate chicken and turkey eggs together?

Don’t Panic. I cook them both together. Same temperatures, same humidity. The only difference is that I set the chicken eggs exactly seven days later than the turkeys so they’ll all hatch at roughly the same time.

Can you incubate duck and goose eggs together?

What does this mean to you? This means you can probably do single stage incubation in your incubator with your duck and goose eggs! Start with a slightly warmer temperature and then gradually drop it during incubation. Close all vents the first 14 days then gradually open them.

How do you hatch a duck egg without an incubator?

What happens if humidity is too low in incubator?

If Humidity is Too Low A large air space also means the chick will be smaller than normal. Small chicks are weak chicks, and weak chicks cannot always hatch on their own, and they may die just before or just after hatching.

What happens if humidity is too high when incubating chicken eggs?

If it does develop and the humidity suddenly drops too low some days before hatching, the chick may still stick to the egg shell, it wont be able to get out, so it will die. If it is too high, when the chick is ready to hatch, it may be to “wet” and so, it will have trouble drying up and may be weighted down.

What happens if your humidity is too high in your incubator?

Rarely is the humidity too high in a still-air incubator. High humidity tends to produce a late hatch; low humidity an early hatch. Do not turn the eggs the last three days of incubation. The embryos are moving into hatching position and do not need to be turned.
