    Peacock not Peahen question...

    Thanks WillGriffin03 I reread my question and spell correct put in hen instead of Peahen. I don't mix different fowl I was wondering do the Peacocks when there is more than one if they fight with each other to be the flock leader or can I add another Peacock in later years?

    Killing, Plucking, Eviscerating, & Cutting Up Your Chicken - Graphic!

    Canary or Cricket kind of Chirp

    The chick will sing at random doesn't matter the time of day or night, it's nice to hear a little bit of spring when it is cold outside, I have to admit. I do know which Cuckoo Marans chick it is

    I use regular lights on a timer in my coop to keep them laying in the winter, I just keep it within the summer hours of day light so they stay consistent year round and I up their laying pellets from 16%to 18% and/or 20% a really great quality name brand in the coldest of winter so their body...

    Humidity level on hatching eggs

    I have 2 Bringer 20octo manual turn, so I have to open the incubators 2 to 3 times a day to turn eggs.
