What is the Canarys Incubation Period?
In general, the incubation period of a canary hen is usually around thirteen to fourteen days, but live hatching can happen as early as 12 days or as late as 16 days, depending on the actual hours spent by the hen incubating her eggs. A healthy hen in good condition who ‘setts’ her eggs tightly (yes, ‘setts’ is the correct term) can hatch out her eggs as early as twelve days, but thirteen days or fourteen days is more commonly seen.
