I entered the world of peafowl last weekend when I purchased a yearling IB hen. I have her in a pen with my 3 call ducks and 3 silkies. They all are getting along, no fighting that is, just curious looks. My pen is 20x30x7h with netting over it. There is a hut (larger than an extra large dog house) for shelter and where I place the feed in the dry. She will eat but no go in it to get out of the rain. She perches on the roof of it.
My questions are:
Do I need to have a separate pen for her, or can I just add shade/shelter for her?
What are good treats/tricks/tips to help tame her?
I was thinking of looking for a male to put with her, or do I need to tame her for a while before adding another?
I am enjoying reading all about them. My SIL has them and I love watching them.
