Wow, that is really interesting. Love to see if anyone has anymore pics.

It would be great to have a pea fowl X duck lol

Here is a fun photo of a chicken X cat......

Ahh!!! If you have one of those please do not bring it to South West Louisiana. The attitude of a cat and chicken mixed is probably going to give me nightmares. My lack of sleep or tormented dreams are now on you!

I think the worst part of the picture is how green the eye is.....

I was emailing with a lady that I know, giving her some photography advice. She showed me a picture that she took of one of her birds, and said that it was a peacock x chicken. Here's what she said to me(by the way, they call the bird Twisted Sister):

"She's one of a kind. Her mother was a red banty hen (Rhode Island Red). We had this chicken for years and she never laid a single egg. We didn't have any roosters and our neighbors didn't either. We did have a lot of Peacocks. One year the Banty legged some eggs and hatched several chicks. They looked a little different and grew so fast!!!! Only one survived (we have lot of Owls, Fox and other animals who kill the chickens) and it was Twisted Sister. We finally figured out the father was our white Peacock. For years, Twisted Sister had the body type and size of a Peacock female but she was red like her mother. As time went on, she got more and more white feathers. In the past two years, she had turned almost all white...Twisted Sister has never laid an egg but her mother was a late bloomer so who knows. She is at least 8 or 9 years old now."

After searching Google for quite a while last night, I found multiple results for peacocks x other things, but only one for peacock x chicken. Here is the photo of it(hybrid on the left, it's mother on the right), taken in 1929.




And here is Twisted Sister.




Has anyone ever seen one of these before? I thought it was very interesting.

When was this?!

She must be photoshopped, that can't happen, you can't even breed a chicken and a duck, so what makes a peacock and a chicken anymore possible.

The first post in the thread was May 4, 2013 (posts have a date on them.)
OP offered to ask the owner for more information, and reported back with some, so it must have been current at the time.

I think that chickens and ducks can't breed because drakes have penises, which roosters don't, and the duck hens are meant to have a penis fit into them, while hens have a different thing going on.

I still think it's photoshopped
Not even my mom and nana say its real, but that's my opinion.
