Great! Your the first South Dakotan I have seen on here! Do you raise peafowl too?

 

[Lady Badlands]

No, I don't raise them...yet. I've had two peahens since they were eggs and they're both 21 months old. But my oldest of the two just died on Wednesday and I'm heartbroken. I think I need to purchase a peacock so the peahen that's left has a friend to hang out with. Right now she only has chickens and I don't think she feels they're as good a friend as Buddy was to her. I found a guy in Woonsocket who sells peacocks but can't seem to get a hold of him. Do you know anyone in SD that's kinda close to us that sells peacocks (grown ones).

Thanks!

I have a male that is a year old, so he isn't full grown but it would be a start. I also have a lot of chicks.
I don't know anybody close to hear that sells peafowl. I buy all my adult peafowl from a guy in Abie, Nebraska, which is about an hour west of Omaha. He would work something out with you about meeting half way. Thats what I did. I can PM you his email if you want. His birds are very clean and healthy, and he is the president of the United Peafowl Association.
Another place I get my peafowl is in Allen, Nebraska (about 30 mins west of Sioux City) at the Isom Swap Meet.
Let me know if you want more information on either things.

 

[Lady Badlands]

Yes, I would like more information. I like the idea of the guy meeting halfway, however, with all the flooding of I29, this might not happen. But the fact that he's the pres of UPA helps me trust that the peacock would be well-bred and healthy. Please PM me any and all the info you can. Thank you so much!!!

The light color peachick is a india blue white-eye that why it is lighter the one that is darker is just a regular india blue.
