I love homesteadingtoday.. I'm having an ht jones too.. wish they'd get that fixed soon

Hi linda. welcome to the peafowl world.....Its all new to me also.. Looks like I'm your neighbor... I'm in cassadaga. Send me a pm sometime. Marie

I read all this stuff on worming and antibiotics for peafowl(IB). but I'm noticing it does nothing for them like a heatlight. I have wormed my chicks, elder chicks, adults and antibioticed them and they still sniffled. I give them a heatlamp and they get healthy. These are not small birds...

sorry for your loss. I too am worried about mine. I've wormed them and gave them antibiotics but the babies have a sniffle again. All I see is a sniffle, no other symptoms. I have 2 that are about 4 months old and they hold their heads in like a crouched position, and I wonder why. They...

keep us informed on how this works out, please. I have an interest in pursuing this idea also. Thanx

I like your pens. In new york we get so much rain the run off from that barn would be bad. Not sure how much rain you get. I have to put mine on the run off side of their coop also, but its only a 6 foot roof side. I am in the process of figuring how to build my pens now that the coop is done...

thank you featherhead.

looking at peafowl books, one only has 74 pages. Dont seem they can put everything I need to know in that few pages. What peafowl breeding and managing book do you recommened? or combination of books? I want to know everything...lol Thanks Marie

I have some buff laced polish, large standard size not banties, non-bearded show birds. The rooster has won many blue ribbons, the hens won a few, comparatively. I am looking to trade some of my show bird eggs for some of your show bird eggs. Or just buy some. I need some different gene...

A 12,000 loan for one semester? I would not let him get that loan. thats insane. student loans are dangerous endeavors.

ladies ladies ladies, dont you know men need to be trained. And they forget, so you need to retrain them at times. It takes years of training. the main thing during training to remember is: "never take anything personal"!!!!!

Sorry to hear of your pain. You are definately in our prayers. Stay strong. Marie and lil' Joey

ha ha, Thanks for the posts. I do appreciate the hens, dont get me wrong. the ones sniffle is gone. I wanted blues because around here no one has the IB's anymore. They all have the pied and other colors mostly white with black on them. I like that shinny blue. Either way, I only paid 36$...

My BF just took these pictures. breed: frizzle silkie (sizzle) Name: Lacy Age: 6 months Story: We lost our last frizzle of 5 years recently to a racoon. We were so sad. we searched for another at the bird auctions but never does one go through. 10 years prior I met this really old guy...

maybe this is a better shot?

ok, I just picked up 2 young peahens, yesterday. I was told they are pure IB's. I dont want any pieds. I just want some pure blues. Anyway. taking a closer look this one has one white feather on her left wing. And its white, not tan. There are no other white feathers on either hen, they...

Ok here are my peachicks. I was told they should be about 3 months old. but they are small. What sex would you say they are? Thank you Marie

yesterday, I picked up 2 pure IB chicks. They are very large for being hatched in june. Huge compared to these other babies I picked up, born around the same time. I have them in quarantine now. I made them some terrimycin water as I noticed a slight sniffle on one of them. They were in a...

I just picked up 2 young peahen chicks from someone who kept the parents in one of them. what a great design. I wish I could locate one for myself. I been eyeing up my round pen which is 60' diameter made with larch posts, but then where would I work my filly?...lol

will they have birds for sale at that lucasville swap on the 10&11th?
