She may lay more eggs.
Peahens are individuals--just like women--so what one does
may not be done by another.
I have a peahen that is a very good mother. I have others
that are not.
But most of my peachicks are produced when I put the eggs
under setting chickens for the first 23 days then place
them in incubator to hatch. Incubation of normal size egg
in warm climate takes 26 days. In cold climates it is 28
days. I live in Georgia USA so mine hatch in 26 days
