peacocks

I have 3 peachicks 3-4 months old 2 of them are a little older and a lot larger. I'm starting to think I have all males since they have lost any barring yet but I'm not sure. I'm new to peacocks. IMG_2877 by FarmerRN79 posted Aug 29, 2017 at 3:53 PMIMG_2865 by FarmerRN79 posted Aug 29, 2017 at...

Hello, I have (3) yearling spaldings, possibly Jade. I think 2 are males, and 1 is female, but as I am not familiar with this breed's characteristics, I am unsure. Anyone have any idea? Thanks.

I purchased this pair when they were chicks. They are a little over a year old. Do I have two hens or are they not old enough to start showing colors. My wife watched a YouTube video on how to vent them. She thinks one is a male. What is your guess? Thanks for the help.

Hi! I want to learn about peafowl, so maybe later on I can hatch some. 1. First of all, I am pretty sure they are, but are male pefowl aggressive? 2. Are males only the ones with the pretty coloring? 3. How big do they get? 4. What do they eat? 5. Can they fly? Would I have to clip their wings...

When I was a kid, there was a cartoon that featured, pluck-pluck-pluck-pluck pla-pluck Suuuuuper Chicken!! Anyway, always thought chickens were fun — and they can be. Anyway, I'm new to BYC, but not super new to chickens. I've been raising and hatching them for the past 7 or 8 years and raising...

Hello, We are raising 22 guinea keets and 4 peafowl, all of which are only 1 month old. They are in our house right now, in separate cages (guinea in one, peas in the other). We converted a horse stall into a coop for the birds, all enclosed with chicken wire to keep predators out. We raise...

Do Opal, Bronze, Peach and other color variants still show the same barring that Blue do? I know Black Shoulder is a whole different set of rules, but for "regular" Non-BS colors do the same basic barring rules apply? I cannot find many pictures, or accurately labeled pictures, of peachicks in...

These eggs have been claimed! Thank you! So, I am not turning on my incubator this year (I tested eggs with a friend instead) and I just got back from a 2-week vacation and while I had someone come pick up the eggs from the first week, there are a couple dozen unclaimed eggs from 6/4 to today...

This past week and weekend a peahen has taken up living in a commercial parking lot. I tried to find the owner to no avail. The only farm close by hasn't responded to even coming to look at the peahen. I'm worried for the fate of this peafowl. The commercial buildings and parking lot she has...

Hello I am new to BYC and to raising peachicks... these are my first four and are supposed to be two whites and two purples. I've been told the white ones won't be able to be sexed until they're about 6 months old, but some other thread talked about bars or stripes that can help sex the other...
