Hello,
I've just brought two new peacocks home to join my lonely yearling. However one of them seems to have a yellowish stool, that dries white. I know this can be a symptom of blackhead so I'm obviously worried as I've only just got him and he's going to be mixing with the other new bird and my original peacock. Apart from the stool he appears fine - perky, alert, moving around and exploring his new home. His wing feathers are occasionally a bit low but it is a hot day so he might be cooling off. We saw the other birds where he came from and all seemed active and alert, running up and down the pen they were in. He has been calling and eating. Considering he's in a new environment and had a 2 hour journey in a box he seems surprisingly fine. Is it possible it's just a reaction to the stress of the move? Would it be possible for him to have blackhead and yet seem to well?
