How long are chukar hens fertile  after mating.

Should be around 2 to 3 days, but you shouldn't have to worry because if the male has mated with her then he will keep doing so about once or twice a day.

With pretty much every species/breed you will have good fertility usually up to a week and then it starts to decline and around 2 weeks some eggs still may be fertile but there is a MUCH lower chance. But the way to get the best fertility is to have a rooster with a hen, or do it artificially.
