Peacock eggs are about three times the size of
chicken eggs, and smaller than goose eggs, light tan or ivory in color.
The mother lays usually 4-6 eggs in a short period in spring, though we had
one lay on top of a pickup camper and hatch her peacock
babies in October! We tried to care for them with
a cage and light to warm them, but it was just too cold and
they didn't make it. It's a tough world.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After 28 days of incubation, the peacock eggs
hatch, in a nest usually hidden in the woods, in leaves, sometimes in dirt.
I've heard of peahens sitting on a nest
in the open, next to a woodpile! We had one a few
years ago who nested in some berries, about 10 feet
away from the shop we were adding onto. We had a
tractor doing grading that must have come within 3 feet
or so of the mother, but she still stayed on the nest!
Mothers leave the nest only once a day, usually flying in, making
alot of noise, probably to distract predators from the eggs.
Now to answer the question there not worth anything!!!!!!
