I took a pair to a wedding not long ago.

Sorry.

I have never had a peabird with droopy wings to make it. I would separate it from the rest of the flock and worm them all. Also, pick the bird up and feel its breast to see if it is eating (you can compare it to his brothers). If it is thin, it could be a matter of the other birds not...

If you are on a budget the GQF forced air will do well for a pair of peas in terms of capacity and hatch success. Have not had good results from the Hovabators. If money is not a concern, then go ahead and get a cabinet.

I have done well with red goldens, cotornix and bobwhites. Valleys and ringnecks not so good.

I have had trouble putting whites in with blues. One starved to death last year after putting it in the pen with the others at about 6 months old. It actually died at the vet's office. Another younger chick died this year from unknown causes. This chick was hatched naturally and was left in...

Thanks, but it is way beyond a cure.

I want to put her down but my wife is attached to the little thing. Anyway, I will get a vet to do the dirty work if we go that route. Thanks for the responses, and I agree that since peas spend nearly all of their time walking that the bird would have a hard life.

I have one peachick with a bad leg...bad enough to amputate. My question is: Can peafowl lead a fairyl normal life on one leg aside from mating. Thanks in advance. Mitch

Where are you, MC?

Apple looks just like her mom. They have the same amount of white in their flight feathers.

That girl on top is just georgeous! She is split to white for sure. Which ones to keep? The ones you like the best as far as personality and how well suited they are to your particular environment. Does one stray off more than the other? Do they get along well with others? Is one more...

Peafowl reside quite peacefully with most types of pheasants. I never got along with my ringnecks as well as the peafowl did, so now my peas live with red goldens which are much more docile.

None for me yet here in Georgia.

The W choromsome is diregarded in most color related general public discussions since it has no color related loci. If an organism is missing a chromosome it has more problems than what color it is. Yep, midnight is not sex linked, so my considerations are not correct but the midnight...

They are old enough to sex now. Black shoulder (BS) females will be really light colored and the males will be looking much like the normal blue color. Black shoulder and white eye are patterns which occur in addition to thier overall color but the BS hens are very different looking than blue...

I am no expert by any means, but I see some major problems with the exert from the original post. First, males inherit two sex chromosomes and females only one. That is how sex is determined. So, a female cannot be split to any sex linked color. She will exhibit the phenotype of the one sex...

My experience is somewhat limited, but last year I did not get any here in Georgia until late April.

It was nice enough here today for me to get out and rake the pea pen. My silkies are laying fairly regularly and I was thinking I would put some in the bator, but the more I thought about it the more I realized how burned out on chicks I can be by July. So..I will wait until my peas and red...
