One of our peacocks has a "thing" for popcorn. If we are sitting out back eating there are 4 dogs and one peacock begging. He isn't shy about it either, he is right in the middle of them.

Why do you raise Peafowl?

Like to see a picture of that
The fact that we didn't get ours young enough could be a good possibility. Our pieds were yearlings, and the midnights are 3 and 4 year old breeders. I didn't want super young birds, as I didn't feel like doing the brooder thing. Wanted to be able to put them right outside.
When the midnights breed next year we'll keep back a few and see how it goes.

I wondered about the males too, since we've never had a male -- are they like roosters? do they get really aggressive during breeding season or will they hang with the ladies & leave people alone, or attack anything that comes into their territory?
MinxFox : Your avatar is so beautiful! Thats your India blue pied white eye right?
Peafowl seem protective of their surroundings does everyone find this to be true?
Your little dog sound like my chicken could take it on and well lets face it they ARE chickens. My rescued dog is a 1 ½ year old Golden retriever puppy and Im still trying to break him of the chicks being play toys even though he was exposed to them since they were 1 day old and behaves beautifully----- when we are within sight.
Love the hawk story wonder if that hawk ever came back or went on to friendlier hunting grounds
Thanks yes that is my India Blue pied white eye. Our poodle is afraid of a lot of things, but then again she catches opossums and plays with them until we can pull her off of them.

In the Brooder
I just recently bought two 10 month old india blue peafowl. We put them in a green house till i could finish the netting over their pen and disaster strikes the next day. The wind picked up the whole green house peafowl and all and blew away. Luckily when i got home we were able to find them and catch them. I have 8 guineas and i figured they would stay with them but they didn't. Anyways I'm new to peafowl any tips and advice to training them?
