dangit i was afraid of that . it was the smallest in the cage so i thought it was a hen. but i guess not. but the saddle feathers arent pointed. whats up with that.
i had the same thing happen to me. i went to kentucky and my aunt went back to her house and called me and said there was a peacock on her porch. so now i have him and he has settled in nicely.

I think my favorite bantam chicken you have is the black and blue mottled d'uccle. Ive never seen anything like them. There beards and tufts make them so beautiful. I think I may have to invest in getting me some of them. WOW!!!!
i live with my grandparents. anyway whenever i ask them if i can let some of the hens hatch some eggs and they say ok i put the eggs under the hens and wait. well there almost always bantie eggs and when ever they hatch after about a week i can tell what they are. my grandpa and grandma think...
the white hen is a serama, she adopted them all. =]
this is fiona, a mutt hen. she hatched one of the two you can see in the pic.
i found another one. i don't know what she is. but the chick turned out to be a rooster and is a BOxRIR.
yes deerman and kev are both awesome. they know so much. and its about every bird animal. lol.
i do have a question though.
how can you tell its an indian blue pied HEN.
also i thought peafowl couldnt mix genetics.
