Peafowl… a good or bad idea?!
Try to find my post titled “Oopsie peafowl”. I was sold a peafowl as a turkey. My peacock, chickens, turkeys and guineas all coexist together. They all free range except for my Tom, my male Guinea and my rooster because they were on the verge of killing my hens during mating season so they have... -
Oopsie Peafowl
Hi all! River is now 15-16 months old and finally starting to get more green feathers in his tail. He free ranges 24/7 (sleeps on the pitch of the chicken house or the donkeys stall) except for when we vacation and then he is locked up in the large coop/run with the chickens. He still super... -

Turkey with no snood?
Mine ended up being a peacock! Lol! It was sold to me as a turkey. He’s a year old now. -
Oopsie Peafowl
Hi all! Just an update on my boy! He’s slowly getting more color. I wish I could get pictures of him fanning his tail but he always puts it down as soon as I get close enough. 🙄 -

Oopsie Peafowl
Yeah I figured in another year or two he will look a lot different. -
Oopsie Peafowl
Hey! Here are a few pictures from yesterday of “River”. Not sure how or why I picked that name. Lol -
Oopsie Peafowl
Oh and he’s got the prettiest light bluish grey eyes! Is that normal? Everyone that meets him immediately comments on his eyes. -
Oopsie Peafowl
Hi all! Just my monthly update. I still need to name him. Suggestions? He is still super attached to the turkey he was raised with. You can’t see in the pictures but he has blue and green feathers starting to come in on his head. He constantly flies out of the pasture and freaks out because he... -
Peacock “honking”
I may eventually have to let him out with the turkey because I just went to put the turkey back up with him and he has cut his feet all up from freaking out trying to get out to be with the turkey today. He was pacing all day, flying from the roost to the sides of the run carrying on. 😞 -
Coop or trees
Make sure you use hardware cloth and not chicken wire as many animals can chew through chicken wire. -
Peacock “honking”
I really wish I could let him out but I’m so scared he will leave and not come back. We are on 10 1/2 acres. I’ve been looking for a female for him but haven’t found any near me. He got out the other day when I was getting my turkey out and he flew up into a tree. I was absolutely panicking! it... -

Peacock “honking”
Yep that first honk was it! Now why don’t those come up for me? Mine isn’t making the “caw” after the honk. Just the honk lol -
Peacock “honking”
My peacock is 5 months old. He was raised with a Royal Palm turkey and I let her out today to hang out in the pasture with the other turkeys and chickens. My peacock is pacing back and forth in the run making a honking sound. I know he’s upset (I’ll put the turkey back with him later) but I... -
Peacock got loose! Help!
Ok it’s all ok now! I got the peacock and the turkey after the peacock flew way up into a tree. I was freaking out. But they are both safe in the coop now. -
Peacock got loose! Help!
No I don’t have any other but it was raised with one of my turkeys and it finally flew down and won’t leave the turkeys side. Hopefully I can get them both put up in their coop when it gets dark (the two of them share a coop separate from my other turkeys and chickens). -
Peacock got loose! Help!
It finally flew down and won’t leave my one turkeys side. Hopefully I can catch them when it gets dark. -
Peacock got loose! Help!
Help! My peacock got loose from the coop and is up on my donkeys stall. He’s never been loose before!
