Wow, that's awesome! I started a thread because I'm having some Chicken & Pea Trouble, maybe you could take a look? I free range the chickens during the day, and I've only got one peacock who is in the coop with them, who I want to come back into the coop at night. I'm having some weird issues...

Thanks for reading my post! I was told by the guys at Leggs in Texas that keeping laying hens and Peafowl together is fine, assuming I'm willing to risk disease transfer if the chickens carry anything. I am currently not able to keep them separate as I do not own the property that I'm on and...

Wow, I haven't even seen it in person, and already this is my new favorite color variety. Purple and BS midnight have intense color as well, but there is virtually no comparison with the teal + cobalt eye feather, it looks like gold is completely missing in the feathers, I wish there were...

What LGD breed do you keep? Awesome, what LGD breed is that? How many birds do you free range? I am trying to figure out how to free range relatively safely and see if I want to invest in breeding Peafowl or not.

Well, President Snow has been living alone with the chickens in the coop and run for over a year now, he is a white peacock. He lives with 4 speckled sussex, 4 plymouth barred rocks, two black australorps, and one old RIR, all hens. My first problem with this batch of laying hens we raised, is...

I also would be interested in peachicks this year in MN. I have a white peacock and have been unsuccessful trying to find him a white breeding age hen, so I am hoping someone in Mn or nearby WI will have white or pied chicks available this summer.

What state are they in?

When did the spotting start and what were the parents? Sorry if you already answered that for someone else, I was just so shocked to see a white pea with spots, I didn't think other patterns or colors could effect a white bird.🤦‍♀️

Interesting, does the farm with that peacock have a website? It would be interesting to know the parentage...

Males can be worth more in certain areas where their beautiful tails are prized:bow, but peahens are your only shot at breeding. Peahens are usually worth more for anyone who breeds peafowl because though the gender of eggs should be 50-50, more hens are needed than males if you want to breed at...

If you are new to keeping peafowl, I suggest doing as much research as possible about their care. You can use the search tool on this website for specific questions. They need clean water and access to food of course, and they do not appreciate being handled or chased more than necessary. The...

I just saw the picture and was about to say that I recognized the dog breed! Cane Corsos are so beautiful!!! Ours is 3 and he is such a big sweetheart!!!

That's a very good point, since you are getting an adult, I would recommend keeping her confined for at least a few months in an area with a shelter and run for outside access. They also need a large enough area for breeding so that the male can display for the female. Also, I recommend...

It doesn't matter either way :thumbsup

You are fantastic. I wish people would bring my peacock gift baskets when they scare him. Yes, bananas are a favorite as are blueberries, pomegranate seeds, raw sunflower seeds, and kale. If their owner feeds him processed food then fresh treats would be best for him.

Peacocks naturally call during breeding season each year, but you could try to confine him so that he can't find a high place to call from and see if that helps. Peafowl are social and prefer to be with their own kind over guineas or any other species. Peafowl's high noise level are something to...

Peafowl do not like to be touched unless they are hand raised and can have health problems if you stress them out by touching or cornering them. However, if you have gotten attached to her, I would suggest putting her in a large enclosure to protect her from predators and to keep her around...

You are right swans need company to thrive. Geese would be fine but if you can find a swan for sale you could buy him a female and keep them both on your property.

👍Those are just about the most handy and portable treats. I feed mine from hand and they just tear off chunks but most do not let people close and would rather eat small pieces.

Have you noticed any other symptoms or changes in behavior? I would treat for cocci as recommended with medicine you can get at farm stores or online. Is your pea kept with any other birds and what is his area like? Make sure he is still drinking water and try to feed favorite treats. You can...
