Do peacocks lay eggs regularly?

Do peacocks lay eggs regularly or only when there is a peacock around?

i thought they only laid once a year in breeding season, and then sometimes they can have another batch later in summer. but they only lay to have babies. not like chickens. so, they only lay eggs with a male around as far as i know.

they only lay once a year during breeding season, there no chicken

They are seasonal breeders thus they only lay during warm weather. They will lay 2 or 3 clutches (batches) if you pull the eggs from the hen. They will also lay eggs without a male around but of course they will not be fertile.
