2015 Pea Prices

[DylansMom]

Good for you! One more and that will free up another pen.

Thanks, this sale already freed up a pen. That makes 2 open and if I can sell 1 more I will have 3. Just enough to make a Bronze pen, a Purple Pen and a Peach pen. The white males I am selling are not the bachelor twins in that first picture of the ad. I could never split them up after 7 years together. I secretly refer to them as Oscar and Felix. What really chaps my backside is having to waste a pen every breeding season just to put Poppie into time-out, because of his rage issues. I can't even let him free range because he either fence fights or comes onto the porch and does battle with his reflection in all my glass doors. Anybody know if the testosterone levels in male Peas decline with age? Poppie is about 12.... I think.

I was reading a thread on caponing that looked like it was not to difficult to do. My only cock to be overly dominant got chased off by guinea.

Is there a reason that other people on this forum might be reluctant to discuss their current selling prices? I know that some breeders don't like to give away some of their 'secrets'.

Naa i think i already posted my prices a while back on a different thread.
I get 7 per egg with a 4 egg minimum
20 to 25 on peachicks depending how old they are,
a coming 1 year old trio goes for 150
a coming 2 year old trio goes for 225
I get 300 for a breeding age pair (3 years or older)
If i have extra hens breeding age i get 125 each no matter what color

Might be best to hone ones skills on roosters or Guineas first.

Poppie is not Amused!

Well my IBSP male left today. He is embarking on a career in live theater. He will be one of the starring attractions in the Live Nativity at Mountain Top Ministries.

I had never connected a Nativity scene with peacocks before. That will have to sink in....

 

[MinxFox]

HE IS A STAR!!!
I hope he does well.

Neither have I.

The Pastor came to see the white one and really liked the Silver Pied.

White male #2 and a yearling Pied just left, so we have accomplished our mission and freed up 3 pens for our Purples, Bronzes and Peaches.
