Quail's hollar Farm :

I don't speak peafowl so you'll have to explain what type of male you have.

LOL, sorry... I'm knew to a lot of it also.

My male is a Spaulding Silver Pied, Spaulding means he is a cross between a Java and a IB/ or BS peafowl, in my case one that throws Silver pied color . It is a way to try to introduce color into the Javas, them naturally being green in color.​

Ok, I had a duck and chicken today unzip and making all kinds of noise. When I went to check on them, they were pushing at the Shell trying to get out but had completely turned around to the other end of the egg and couldn't get out. I've watch my other chicks hatch and they didn't do this. I helped them both out because I was afraid they couldn't get out. Why would they be doing this? Is it normal?

Wow.... very pretty, such colors...... Almost looks like what you might get if a peacock and a turkey crossed........  /img/smilies/big_smile.png Never seen them before.   QH you are very lucky to have found them, they are gorgeous.



Can turkey & Peafowl breed?

In all my life, I have yet to see a verified turkey/peafowl cross, not even a picture of one. There are pics of so called turkey/peafowl cross but the ones I have seen are photo shopped. In fact, I have never seen a Turkey crossed with anything other than a Turkey. Ive heard rumors that they exist but, I myself am highly doubtful. I have witnessed a guinea/pea hybrid but that combo is very rare. I put a Turkey/Peafowl hybrid into the same category as the infamous Rabbit/Cat hybrid aka Cabbit.
