    Chalky bald spot. ???

    I have never seen this before on my peacock. He’s 8 yrs old, no signs of illness. Growing back his train well, has a peahen with him. Is kept separate from the chickens. He let me scratch at it, so not painful or bloody. What do you think it is?

    Chick with respiratory issue

    Hello friends. Fellow chicken tenders. I’ve got about an eight week old chick that seems lethargic and when I brought her in and checked her out it seems there’s a little bit of a sound in her breathing. It’s almost like a click. I think it might be a respiratory issue so what can I give her...

    Worried about my peacock.

    Hello all. So, my main worry is that since my peacock is molted, he is spending less time on his roosts and more time just sitting on the ground. I’m concerned he’s losing weight. Neither he nor the hen seems to be eating a lot. Am I just worrying over nothing? I’ve had him for about a year...

    Peacock not eating

    So we picked up a five year old peacock from a friend and brought him home. He is in his own pen with other fowl for company walking around and things he’s aware of them and they interact to some degree. But he’s not eating very much. He’s displaying, he’s calling. But he’s really not eating. I...

    Is this a scam???

    Does anybody recognize this “hatchery” or seller? The amount of breeds he has. And the fact that I offered to pick up the birds and he said no he only ships. And I’m looking for adult birds. I didn’t think you could ship adult birds? Thanks!!!

    New male.

    Good morning! I am a new peacock owner. And we’re considering getting him a hen. Should I wait to bond with him before we get him a mate he feels he has to protect? There’s a seller out of Asheville, NC that ships adult birds. Does anybody have any experience with him or that? He’s on FB...

    Transportation

    Hello peacock tenders! I am going to be getting a peacock about five years old. And I’d like your suggestions on how best to transport him. It’s not a long drive, maybe 45 minutes. But he’s a big boy. Any suggestions? I don’t know what kind of box or crate to put him in so that he’ll be...

    Ailing Pekin

    Hi Duck friends, Would like your opinion on a duck who laid a weird “egg”. It’s in quotes because there was no shell and there was no yolk. It was just a membrane with the white in it. And she’s been lethargic for a couple of days and is reluctant to move around. What can I do to help her...

    New ducklings.

    I know chickens can be real peckers if you try and slip a new chick under them that isn’t theirs. But what about duck mama’s? One of our Cayuga hatched a duckling about 6 weeks ago. I separated her with the Drake when she went broody until the youngster was about 4 weeks old. Reunited everyone...

    Wry neck

    Hi All. I have an adult duck, an Ancona who is exhibiting signs of wry neck. I’ve been reading other threads about vitamin E, selenium and Poly-Vi-Sol. And I don’t know what the dosages are. The vitamin E and the selenium are both in tablet form. And I’m afraid of overdosing her because I’ve...
