The incubation period for pigeon eggs is 14-18 days and they should be kept warm at 35 to 37 degrees. If raising more than one egg, candling is important because one dead embryo can contaminate another. One can use a torch with lens the size of a coin or a commercial Candler will do. In a dark room facing the source of light, check out the egg for a black spot. If it is present then the embryo has survived. Otherwise, a red ring will be present around the yolk indicating death.
