    Blackshoulder or Blackshoulder Pied?

    The yellow fluff on the chick can stay white or darken if it is a true BS. How do you tell as a chick which it will be?

    BS Bronze Genetics Question

    Bummer! Thanks Garden Peas. I kind of figured that was what would happen but I was really hoping I was wrong. He was sickly when I got him. Baytril seemed to clear it up but it obviously sneaked back when I wasn't paying attention and by the time I noticed he was sick again it was too late...

    BS Bronze Genetics Question

    I bought a trio of yearling BS Bronze in the spring. Unfortunately the male has recently died and as they are rare where I am, I am wondering if I used a BS blue male on the two BS Bronze hens would I get a BS Bronze out of that cross? What would I get out of that cross? Would I have to cross...

    Battered Peahen

    One of my peahens in with my 2 year old peacock and another peahen is getting beat up, bad. I am not sure it the peacock when he is breeding her as I haven't seen them breed. The back of her head is bald and bloody, which makes me think it is from breeding but the other peahen is fine. Should...

    wintering peacocks in Canada

    I also live in Ontario. Our peafowl are in 10x10 wooden sheds, the tin roof is insulated but that is all. They make it through the winter just fine, no heat. Their perch is a 2x4 wider side up so they can use their body to heat their feet. Each trio has a 15x30 pen attached to the house that...

    Just One?

    Would you sell just one peacock to a person who has none? I have someone wanting just one (male) peacock. I happen to have one that was going to the auction soon but I am not sure I want to sell him to be alone for the rest of his life. Although I can't control who buys him or what situation...

    DNA sexing for white peafowl

    I sexed my white male peacock by eggshell. I was desperate to know it wasn't yet anotehr female. The eggshell route was a little more expensive than the blood but I din't have to wait for the card or anything. As he was the only one that hatched knew which shell was his:) I used this company...
