New to peacocks

[Moop]

Hi. I just got 2 pairs of the black shouldered peacocks. My question is, my house sits on an acre lot. I want to have the peacocks free range to eat the bugs and spiders around my property as I live in the country. Can peacocks free range on an acre of land?

Welcome to BYC!

One acre for free-ranging probably won't work.

That kinda sucks. I have a 40' x 60' flight pen. Would they be ok in that space?

Yes!

Sweet. Thanks.

Are the neighbors deaf?

Perfect! But you didn't say how close the neighbors live to you.

We have good space in between neighbors.

I was asking HP if they still have room for a pair of birds to Idaho and this is what they told me. 'Sam in Montana did not book. I sent him the transport agreement 3 days ago when he asked what we needed from him. This route is closed. Our next route starts on 4/4. '

We have good space in between neighbors.

If that 'good space' is a half-mile away you could probably free-range the birds. If it is a hundred feet away they might not like the mating calls for about four months every year.
