I have 3 free range peahens and 8 peacocks, and I’ve been trying to find their nesting spots all spring but all I find is broken eggs. I have seen a Stoat running about, so I just assumed that was the culprit. I found a hen sitting on a clutch of 3 eggs yesterday, so I’ve been giving her a wide birth. This morning I’ve just seen her walk out carrying a broken egg and then go back and peck the other two eggs, although she hasn’t broken them.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour before? Could it be they’ve been doing this to their own eggs all along?
