Ok long story short my aunt passed away a couple months ago. i am getting her peafowl. i have not seen the birds but was told they were 2 cocks and 1 hen. i am not set up for peafowl. so need to build a coop or pen for them. how much area do they need. and how tall should i build it. i will be using 1 inch chicken wire for the sides and top. would 4 feet high work for them. the wire i bought is 4 foot. i am thinking 8foot X 20 feet 4 foot high. also should i clip their wings so they can not fly just for safety if they happen to make a break for it. would also like to know if peafowl roam? i have 5 acres and would like to let them free range once they adjust to their new home maybe next spring. any help would be great thanks
