We have a pea chick that hatched but the peahen died. I‘m trying to get another peahen to take it but the peacocks are constantly in the way. Is there a way to get them together.

What? The chick that hatched died? Peahen to take what - adopt a chick or something? I don’t understand your post at all....
 
Another peahen will not accept it!
Try to raise it with a chick (the chick knows where to eat and where to drink) ... inside ... under a lamp!
 
Sorry, I’m gonna make it a bit clearer.
The peachick is now about 2-3 months old and I don’t want the peahen to take it as if it’s hers, I want her to just accept it and to let it near them during the day
 
There is very little chance that an older bird will hurt a younger bird out of breeding season. All birds must establish the pecking order, after they know their place they will be fine. Do put some hiding places in the pen with them so they can hide if they need to.
