Personality wise, what is the most cautionary behavior should I watch out for?
First time Peafowl owner?
Recently acquired a Peahen for free as it had just shown up on the property in November and we had some pretty heavy storms. So the nice people, whom already have chickens, decided to allow it to eat and they never tried to cage her. In between storms she would take off and show back up a couple days to a week later just as the next storm rolled in. Now that the storms have tapered and are not a violent as they once were, she stuck around their house. Not exactly wanting to keep her, as she was getting involved with pecking status amongst their few chickens, they asked around to neighbors if they knew whom she may belong to, without any answers, they finally decided to find her another home. She does not have any bracelet or tag. They were able to easily cage her as she favored the husband but stayed clear of the wife due to he "shooing" her away at the beginning.
Unsure of her age, not able to tell just by looking at her of course. But she seems to stick around just find on our ranch. And I have a lot of chickens, a few turkeys and some ducks. She is pretty docile so far, isn't noisy, and I think she likes to roost in the trees mostly. I had her separated from my flock at first but she didn't like being caged for long, even though it is an adequate enclosure. She doesn't seem to mind the 4 dogs, or the cat, and she still looks at us with her head caulked to the side. I tell her hi all the time I see her, haven't given her a name yet, but is still uncertain if I am friend or foe!
Any Advice would be greatly appreciated, I have read through the starter post, and skimmed through a couple pages.....
