That is really cool. I love green peahen crests! So are these all of your breeder hens for next year? Hopefully you can get many peachicks from them!

I was thinking the same thing...I love their crests! I especially like Sissi's crest.

Yes this are all my breeder hens. As you can see on the pictures, most of the hens are acutally moulting the crest feathers and getting a lot of new once. Finally the crests will be longer and more fully.

Quote: I did notice they were molting, but considering that, the crests are still stunning. So how many breeder peacocks do you have of the imperators?

Next spring I have 3 three year old and 3 two year old males of imported Imperators. In February / March, depending on the weather I will make the same again. Then you can see the differences in crests length and then I will make a head studies of the males too.
For the males it is a little bit too early now.

I cannot wait to see the male crests! Are you going to pen them as pairs and trios? Lets hope that means great fertility.

I will pen them (1;1) or (1:2) the rest we will see. I will not breed as much as possible because it is not so easy to find good places for the offsprings. If somebody will reserve a certain number of birds in advance then I will do maybe a little more.
But now the winter is coming, the trains are growing and I don't spend at the moment too much time to think about what happens in the next breeding season.
