No problem Zaz! I am here to give people help anyways. I spent forever reaching dead ends researching green peafowl breeders only to find out some of the best sources in the US are about an hour from me! There isn't as much information readily available about greens like there is for India...

Okay then the main difference from what I am seeing if #1 & #5 are the imports is in the crest. Kelly has Rodney Michael greens, but he did get a few males from Josh to introduce new blood. Actually Josh I think has some American Greens from Kelly. If you are trying to really vary your...

Those Spaldings don't look that high %. I am not sure about the exact price, but probably a price a little more than the price of an India blue. Here are photos of the Castlebury Java Greens: http://www.castlebury.net/greenpeafowl.htm I emailed him not too long ago and I don't think they have...

I find it so weird how they let other peafowl pull out their feathers. Maybe they are confused thinking that the other bird just wants to preen them instead of pull out their feathers?

Why don't you agree with the example? From what I understand the crest feathers of the green peahen are rounded at the ends and the green peacock's crest feathers are pointed at the ends. The photo clearly shows that and the peahen crest feathers from your photos look like the ones in the...

I think what Clinton meant is that you don't want the green peafowl to think that they are India Blues because then they may not act like green peafowl but act more like an India Blue. I am not sure if having an India Blue variety raise green peafowl would make a difference or not. They...

Me too I can't wait to photograph them again! Next time I should look for any feathers that they have shed.

Hi Clinton I am being careful about green peafowl eggs or chicks. I would only get eggs or chicks from those breeders who I know have pure green peafowl instead of getting them from ads. I would also ask for photos of the parents of the eggs or chicks just incase or get the eggs or chicks in...

If you find some pure Javanese green hatching eggs let me know! I contacted a peafowl breeder this year explaining how I really wanted pure green peafowl eggs to hatch, and he said he was sorry but he doesn't sell eggs. I did get lucky and a member on here sent me two pure Burmese green eggs for...

When you say keep them under control with a certain regimen you follow every day, what do you have to do? Do you just watch your back at all times?

Unfortunately green peafowl can be more wild than India Blues and their varieties. They can be more prone to be aggressive, although not all of them are that way. I have seen several photos of people petting and hand feeding adult green peacocks and peahens so they can be tamed down. Some are...

I love how green peafowl look golden. I also love how beautiful both sexes are.

I agree it is going to be harder breeding for Spaldings, especially if you are going for ones that look more like green peafowl. It takes some breeders a long time to get birds that look a lot like a green peafowl but are not. Spalding chicks from the same parents will vary in looks. Some will...

Your Java peahen is very pretty where did you get her from? We all like seeing photos from new people too so you should post your photos in the Show Off Your Peas topic!

Thanks for the interesting information Destinduck. I really need to visit you sometime because I would love to see all of your birds and your setup. I am glad to hear that Goldilocks can keep yet another lonely green peacock some company. All of my peafowl are doing well and I am trying to...

One person has said that the reason why his greens don't grow very long crests (I thought most of them were long) was because he has so many visitors at his farm that the birds are always pacing the fence when visitors come, and so they wear down their crest. I could definitely see stress...

That is a beautiful Imperator! I really do like the ones with a long crest. It is always a shame when other birds pick their crests off.

If you all want to see photos of Blue Creek's Impeyans check out this page of his pheasants topic: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/731223/my-pheasants/30 They are very pretty birds which definitely rival peafowl as far as color. ---------- Yesterday I found a peafowl breeder's website and...

Yes Blue Creek Farm from here recently got Himalayan Monals and he said they dig all over the pen. Destinduck had some once too. The person's website that these photos came off of has the goal to document all the diversity of animals by visiting mainly zoos and taking photos of the animals. They...

I found a photo the other day: I thought I would go ahead and post it here since we are talking about green peafowl. This photo is of a bird at the Houston Zoo. What amazed me is the size of this peacock's crest. Does anyone know where they got their green peafowl from? I also thought his...
