Chicken and peacocks

[Kimmee]

Was wondering if anyone has any knowledge to share about housing chickens with peacocks? I have a very large enclosure (18 ft w x 30 ft L x 17 ft H). Would love to puts my chickens out there during the day, but am unsure if it is safe to have my peacock share his space with the girls. Any and all info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kim

Peafowl, like turkeys, will die from Histomonas parasite. It's not a good idea to have them share space for that reason. A friend of mine lost half of her peafowl over this problem! Mary
