Has anyone ever set peafowl eggs with chicken eggs? Wondering if it can be done or should completly avoid doing it.

Okay that's great news so just set the pea eggs earlier then. This is my first year hatching my peas. They have finally reach sexual maturity. My boy has been doing his job and my one girl has been laying every second day. Very Happy
What do you feed them for starter? Turkey? Do you separate them from the chicks once hatched?

I feed medicated turkey starter and they can stay with chicks for a bit, Pea chicks can fly at a day old and like to leave the crowd every now and then.
