*By the way, MrsRobinson, my comments are definitely not meant to discourage you! Only to prepare you for life with your new wonderful peas!

I third this. I really don't like saying discouraging things because I am such a big peafowl enabler.

I hope you can have peafowl! Last year was my first year having three peacocks all old enough to make the loud peacock call and from what I have observed, when one peacock calls the others like to chime in. Some of them like to call more than others. My white peacock Frosty likes to make noise. Sometimes he makes noises like "ooowh owh owh" which is not the loud call and he makes it throughout the year. I am not sure what he is trying to say. Sometimes I think it might be an attention call or he might be calling for food. One peacock, especially if he has a peahen(s) should not call as much. It does depend on the bird though because like I said my Frosty seems to like to hear himself.
