Aggressive peacock

[Whitplusfive]

Last year we purchased 2 peahens. One ended up being a peacock. We raised him with chickens and had no problems. Until the last 2 weeks. He has become so aggressive to my hens and my rooster that I have put him in a cage. Will he grow out of it. Or will he continue being this aggressive? We do have a peahen. He does not bother her.

Teenagers have raging hormones, he will grow out of it. He identifies as a chicken and thinks the rooster is competition. He will settle down in a few weeks when the breeding season is over.

Hi there, I am having an issue at the moment with our peacock! He is a rescue, and has become aggressive over the last couple of months and we have had to shut him away now too, which is breaking my heart!
He is a couple of years old, so not a teenager!
How did your situation turn out? Would you have any advice?
Many thanks!
