hi,i have 2 peacocks,which i got as 1 day olds.
the one was soo tame,the other,i could not get near,even though i hand reared them both.
the tame one,always jumped into my lap,and i could pet/stroke him.
now he is 18 months old,and things seem to have changed?!!!
when i catch him,he sits as before,but the minute i release him,he tries to attack me,jumping at me,as i turn away,my legs and arms are covered with scatches/bites!!!
is this a normal progresion?
are these birds dominated by hormones?
did i do something wrong?
he was SO sweet,but now he has turned into a vicious bird
can they not remain tame?
gaza
