    Can someone help sex these spaldings, please?

    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.

    Peafowl questions

    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...

    A peahen showed up at my place. I am not aware of any near neighbors who keep peafowl, and I posted on a neighborhood social media page with no response. She has been here over a month. I don't want her to be lonely with just chickens here, so I purchased a male and female peachick to grow up...

    ? Boy meets girl ? I have been raising my peachicks, and today I noticed my white chick jump on top of another chick, grab its head and start, um, "going to town." The chicks are just over a month old... I had my fingers crossed that the white would be a boy. Is this a good sign, or do they...

    Sexing Opal & other non-BS colors

    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...
