2015 breeding season

Burmese are usually larger, but I have seen all three subspecies and didn't notice Burmese having thicker necks. Often you will see photos of green peacocks with their neck looking big and other times it is skinnier. I think they just puff out the feathers some. When you see all three the major noticeable difference is Burmese are overall duller looking. The green on their neck is more muted in color and overall they are a darker looking bird especially when not in direct sunlight. I don't think they are Burmese they are either Javas, Imerators, or mixed subspecies if they are greens.

Oh. Okay. Well I've googled Burmese and Javas and I would see some with thick necks and some with really skinny necks so I assumed that was the difference. But your information sounds a lot better and more accurate than my assumption.
 
3 eggs out of 4 from my green pen are fertile

That's so cool knowing that there is a person in Idaho that is selling Greens. I don't know how much they are and if she's trying to sell all of them or extra Greens.

The Burmese is colored differently than the Javas the wing pattern is different in the blue black areas, i prefer the Javas as far as color goes
