    3 week old peacock peahen sleeping habit

    Newbie and venturing into the Peafowl world. Raising a imprinted Peafowl chick from hatchling.

    Hi there, My name is Jen - I was looking online for some advice on my new peahen who I think has imprinted on me. She is only 4/5 days old. So far I am realizing how much different they are than raising chickens - WAY more hands on care. It is like having a newborn ie up all night...
