I raised 6 birds sense they were hatched. Ended up with 3 males and 3 females. I've always let them out of their pen to free roam but Jade my Emerald Green peacock at 3 years of age has become to aggressive for me and he would attack me often leaving horrible wounds on my back and legs. I've had...
I'm in Florida. After our battle today he decided to leave me alone for a while. I really don't want to hurt him but I'm not going to have a bird that size rule me. He got a nice wack on the feet today after jumping me while I was changing their waters out around the yard. So sad because I...

I'll try but I'm a little lady and he is now a little over 3 feet tall. When he stands super tall and shows his tail I'm a little scared of him. He's the biggest bird I've ever seen. Guess I could put on my leather coat and just duke it out if I have to. Good god! Thank you for your help.

Hi everyone, I don't post on here very often but I'm really concerned with my Java Green peacock stalking me and trying to jump me. I raised him from a chick with 3 others then later added two more year old females. Recently I started to let them free roam now that they have gotten bigger (going...
I had a chicken that started doing that so I ate her. Sorry sounds mean but it solved the problem and she did not go to waste. I have baby chicks all the time so I don't want anything to happen to them.
Hello,
I have had chickens for about 15 years. I have raised turkeys then sale them when they get too big and OMG they get really big.
Now I'm learning about peacocks and peahens. I have four currently that are about 5 months old. I'm going to be building them a very large run but need ideas...
