It takes 28 days. The peahen leaves the nest once a day for a few minutes to eat, drink, and take a dust bath. If it is raining or cold, she may not leave at all.

What part of year do peahens lay eggs?

Peahens typically lay eggs in the spring, usually from March to June, depending on the climate and geographical location. They generally build their nests on the ground, often in dense vegetation, and can lay between 3 to 8 eggs per clutch. The eggs are incubated for about 28 days before hatching.


Do peahen lay eggs like chichens?

Not really. They are eggs, but unlike chickens who may lay daily for up to two years. Peahens usually begin laying eggs in April and will lay eggs every second day until a clutch of 7 to 10 eggs are collected. The eggs are light brown in color and are similar in size to turkey eggs. If eggs are collected from the nest for artificial incubation, a peahen can lay as many as 30 eggs.
