Hey all Tennessee peeps, If anyone is interested I'm selling my India Blue Peafowl EGGS. I've got a posting in the classified thread. I'm in Portland TN so give me a shout if interested.
I'm in the boonies here, still on dial up...it would take a lifetime to load them. It's been so long since I've been on the forum I wouldn't begin to know how to do it since the site is so different than before.Thanks for the help anyway.
Dad and mom are India Blue. At least that is what I was told when I bought the eggs 3 yrs ago. Anything else I couldn't begin to tell you. I am new to the hatch scene and raising of peafowl. Chickens are my thing. But I got the eggs as a test run and had a broody hen(chicken) hatch and raise...
My peahen Polly hatched 6 eggs 2 wks ago. Of the 6, one is a white. Or maybe I should say yellow. Can someone school me on why the split happened, how rare etc? I've been told this is an odd situation.
Also, what age is best to sell them? Suggestion on price.
She is an awesome Momma and has had...
I have to rid myself of my popcorn roos that Ideal included in my order. They look to be RIR or PR, no guarantee on what they are. They are FREE to anyone in my area willing to pick them up.
Yesterday my roo died from the injuries my peacock inflicted. Even though we kept him isolated all my work halted yesterday. Now no roo at all. Now my peacock is trying to mate with my chickens, what will I get chickpeas? He is persistant he doesn't seem interested in the peahens but he's loving...
Mine do the same thing. Alot of times they do it when the boxes are full of other ladies. Mine pushed all the straw out of the boxes. But I built them a good laying box and the ding dongs are laying underneath them instead of in them. Now I have broodies squeezed in underneath the laying boxes...
My poor rooster, Big Boy, who is a standard buff cochin, is being bullied by my peacock Peter! So much so we found my roo in the barn sunday with his head stuck in the slat of a wooden skid. I assume he was trying to protect himself from the Peacock. He was half dead, I revived him by giving him...
Hey Ya'll, I'm in Portland Tn. But I live in Robertson County. I'm on the west side of I-65, five minutes from Franklin Ky.
Haven't been on the forum in a long time. All I do is work. Since I can't do much outside due to the snow thought I'd pop in here and see what's new.
So heres a BIG...
Would taking the eggs do any good? Could that break them or are they as stubborn as chickens in that respect? They are all free range so there's no way I could pen them up. However, last night the hen that has her nest back in the woods got a visit from something while she was on the nest. It...
I have 2 IB hens they are 1 yr 3mos. They both have gone off nesting. How long will they remain broody and set the eggs? This is my first go around with peafowl. I don't know if they have eggs but one of them is nesting in a precarious place. Should I attempt to move her? If so, how is their...
That's the strange thing... she's not dominant in the flock. I know that some hens will do so like you said, but she is at the bottom of the pecking order. I can only say she must be a dreamer.
One of my Cochin hens thinks she is a roo!!! She tries to crow! She strains that neck and lets out the most pitiful crow like sound. She's been doing this for a year now. I don't know what her deal is. She lays eggs... does all that hen stuff. But then when the men sound off she joins in too. It...
Citygirl... thought I would post some pics of our front yard on Sunday. Ours was not the loss that some are feeling. They are being lifted up in prayer.
We live on Summers Branch Creek that flows out of Portland TN. Thought you might like to see some pics. Don't worry we lost very little and it receeded quickly. I remember the flood of the 70's when Opryland got nailed. It took along time to come back from it. Nashville is 30 mins. from me they...
I've put this link on other posts. This is where I buy mine and you sure can't beat the price. Wish you could tell them where you found the link. Maybe they would like to become a sponsor of BYC if they are getting the referrals through us.
