I’m so happy that now everyone seems to be saying it’s a male. I wonder if the people that initially said female are changing their minds.

I’m not sure. It was a cold and blustery day when I took those pictures so I thought he was keeping warm. He likes to sleep in the coop with the rest of the flock. Shall I try and take more frontal pics of him? I wonder what some of those other folks that thought it was a hen think now. I’d...

So you think it's a boy?!?! Are you sure?

I wanted to post newer pictures of my peafowl that everyone seemed so adamant about the gender but nobody could agree. I hope these pictures help to get a consensus on the gender. It was sleeping and I was able to get up really close for some pictures.

Should I Post more pictures? What angle would help?

Wow people are so certain of the gender but everyone says something different!! How can everybody be so certain but there not be a consensus?

Sounds good. I was really unsure what to do with those rubber matts. They are so gosh darn heavy!!!! I'll leave them in. Does anyone know if all other trees (like oak, birch and cherry) are OK to use as chipped pieces in the deep litter? Thanks for you very helpful info!

Hello! This is my first time on here and I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I have a nice, large, clean barn with two horse stalls. The horse stalls have heavy gauge rubber horse mats on top generic sand on the floor. Given that I have such a nice area and don't have any other...
