Hi Guys
Not sure if this is the right section:lol
Any you 'shooters' breed your own Pheasants and in particular do any of you use an incubator?
If so can you tell me what the RH% should be from day 1 to day 21 (pipping) and what it should be from day 21 onwards?
The reason I ask is, that there seems to be a variation of settings depending on who you ask or what you read:lol
Cheers

Malcolm; Try dropping Patrick Pinker a note, mate. What that man doesn't know about pheasent incubation could be written on the back of a pin head.
Started off 'aquiring' a pair of live pheasents, as a youth. Now owns one of the biggest Game Farm businesses in uk. Largely built on his own, self taught, expertise around designing and building incubators
I think it depends on what incubator though i only have a bit of experience with quail.Brinsea would give details what you need there's a guy in Ards for the nearest dealer
Sorry for the late acknowledgement of your post HawkNorth - but I've been engrossed in trying to chase up the info and haven't been on this forum for a while. I got a contact from a guy on a stand at Moira on Saturday and hopefully I'm now on the right lines. Will let you all know the results of the next hatch (fingers crossed).
Cheers
