Hello again! I’m back with my two baby peafowl and wanted to see if they were old enough to tell the gender. I think they’re about 2 mo this old now. The lighter one is a Spaulding and the darker is an India Blue. Can any one help?
IBWE is India blue white eyed. I believe KsKingBee is referring to the white flight feathers and the white throat latch in one of the pics. I have a hen that came to me as just an India blue with the same markings.
This is her at just over a year old. See how the neck and wing have the same white coloration as one of yours.
My guess would be the white eyed is a hen only because her markings are very similar to one of my hens. But don’t quote me on that as I have very little experience with peachicks.
This goofy guy is somehow the dad of the Spaulding baby. He has the white on his neck too. But I was told he was a Spaulding split dark pied. I think the hen is the mother but I was told she was India Blue. So where would the White Eye come from?
