In 2020 I bought some Peafowl eggs from Ebay. I hatched out 3. 1 Male from one set of eggs and 2 Females from another set of eggs.
They were labeled as assorted, and I thought I had them figured out but I'm now not so confident. They should be breeding this summer and I'd really like to know what I have here.
#1. I think he's an India Blue Pied, he has yellow on his cheeks so I was thinking a little Spalding?

#2. Female on the left, again I'm thinking India Blue Pied possibly white eye??

#3. Last one and the one that I'm the most confused about. One picture is above with the male, and with the other female last year. I was thinking India Blue Dark Pied, but I wonder about the spots on the bottom of breast and the different coloring on her back and chest in the sunshine.
This are more pictures of her today.

Can you send a link to whom to buy from ebay. I'm always scared on who to trust on shipping peaeggs.
Thanks
Shipped eggs are not the best route to go. Especially now that the egg laying portion of breeding season is mostly done in the US except for in the northern states. Most of the eggs for sale on ebay at this point are going to have very spotty fertility at best.

Oh I know, but I am gathering links to be prepared for next year.
