Look what I found yesterday!

Yeah that guy I get some of my peafowl from never got chicks from his green pair. When I visited him this year he said the green peacock had died of old age. Now he just has the hen in with a blackshoulder peacock. So did you pick him up at Elton's?

I really love the greens. I know it sounds weird but them not having as many peachicks might be a good thing for me. My parents don't like all the peachicks especially when I hand raise them so green peafowl would cut down on the amount of chicks I guess. Someday I will hopefully have a green peafowl breeding program. I am just being picky about what age, from who, etc I want to start off with. Did you have an indoor area for your Java pair? I was wondering if I would need an indoor area that can be closed off for green peafowl.

Sometime Blue peahen ( cameo ) are smaller than other !
How big is he?

those necks on them are amazing the height and direction they can travel. I've seen our move it in a 360deg turn. I guess to clean all those train feathers you need that kind of neck

Spalding makes it look lighter.

I'll try and get a picture next to a couple of other larger males this weekend.

If you can try and get some feather close-ups on his wing and neck. I just love seeing their feather detail!
